    Colombo-Bound VietJet Flight Makes Emergency Landing At Chennai Airport, To Depart After Engine Repair

    Chennai: A VietJet Airlines flight en route from Vietnam to Sri Lanka made an emergency landing at Chennai Airport late Tuesday night following a sudden mechanical failure. Officials said the flight will depart from Chennai on Wednesday following repair.

    The flight from Ho Chi Minh City International Airport in Vietnam to Colombo, had 143 passengers on board and nine crew members. No injuries were reported.

    The aircraft was cruising at an altitude of approximately 36,000 feet towards Sri Lanka when one of its engines suddenly failed. Realising the danger of continuing the flight, the pilots decided to make an emergency landing at the nearest suitable airport. Subsequently, the pilots contacted the Chennai Airport control room through their airline's headquarters in Delhi. They requested permission for an emergency landing and asked for all necessary safety arrangements to ensure a safe touchdown.

    Following this, all necessary safety arrangements were made for an emergency landing in Chennai. Subsequently, at around 10:30 pm, permission for landing was granted to the flight and subsequently, it landed safely at Chennai airport at 10:40 pm.

    All passengers were accommodated in the airport lounges, where arrangements were made to provide them with drinking water and snacks. Meanwhile, a team of aircraft engineers worked on repairing the faulty engine.

    Officials have been announced that the aircraft will depart on Wednesday after repair.

    Does anyone know which aircraft operated this flight? Is Vietjet doing well on the CMB route? I heard they are looking to expand into CMB, have requested more slots, and are planning to connect MLE and CMB.

        Airbus has found a new problem affecting around 500 of its A321neo aircraft worldwide. Is the SriLankan A321neo fleet affected by this? Read about it here: https://djsaviation.net/airbus-finds...h-its-a321neo/

        I believe ABM is in the A320 hangar; the ADSB transponder was on September 24th.

        4R-ALM is not active since 23-Sep. I note that 5 aircraft in total are grounded at UL. Is it due giving maintenance to the aircraft during off peak season?

                    ANB is undergoing an Eng mod.
                    ABM is back flying.
                    ABS is going thru a C check.

                    No info regarding ALU for now.

                            Will 4R-ABS get UL colours and titles after this C check?
