New Delhi: An Air India flight on its way to London had to make a U-turn after entering Karachi airspace and return to Delhi as the aircraft developed a technical problem. The flight, AI-111, landed safely at the IGI Airport with 136 passengers on board.
Airport sources said that the aircraft was airborne around 3.15pm but around an hour into the flight, the pilot reported a sudden drop in cabin pressure. "He informed the air traffic control and was told to return to Delhi since it was a long haul flight. A full emergency was declared at the airport and the aircraft landed safely around 5.30pm," said sources.
