It is an approximately nine hours transatlantic flight, covering 7,121 Kilometers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to\u00a0<em>Flight Radar 24<\/em>, British Airways flight BA207 took off from Heathrow Airport (LHR) in London at 11:35 AM UTC. Subsequently, the flight is expected to arrive at MIA at around 8:20 PM UTC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, due to its Standby system failure, the flight crew of BA207 decided to turn back to LHR. But they need to reduce the aircraft&#8217;s weight for a safe landing back at LHR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So to reduce weight, they decided to burn that extra fuel. Due to this, the flight is seen circling over the Atlantic, first near Ireland&#8217;s coast and later for a much longer period near England&#8217;s coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, after dumping sufficient fuel, the flight headed back to LHR. Subsequently, it landed at LHR at 5:14 PM UTC, six hours later from its takeoff from LHR for MIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline has not issued any official statement about it yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned with us.
