Emergency Landing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a separate incident, an IndiGo flight bound for Bengaluru (BLR)<\/a> experienced a critical engine failure shortly after takeoff from Kolkata’s Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport on Friday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident forced the aircraft to execute an emergency landing, highlighting the swift response of both the flight crew and ground personnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flight 6E0573<\/strong>, carrying 173 passengers and crew, became airborne at 10:36 PM. Within minutes, the pilot reported a failure of the left engine to air traffic control. This prompt communication triggered an immediate full emergency declaration at 10:39 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airport authorities sprang into action, preparing both runways for a potential emergency landing. The Air Traffic Control took charge of the situation, clearing the airspace and prioritizing the distressed aircraft’s approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the engine failure, the skilled pilots managed to navigate the aircraft back to Kolkata Airport. The plane successfully touched down on a single engine at 11:05 PM, demonstrating the crew’s proficiency in handling such critical situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An airport official confirmed that no fire or spark was observed during the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
