Emergency landing by Saudi aircraft

Mumbai: Even as inclement weather led to diversions and delays of several flights on Sunday, a Saudi Airlines plane made an emergency landing at the city airport after its pilots received a fire warning.
Around 4.27pm, a full emergency was declared for flight SV 748 coming from Riyadh, said an MIAL spokesperson. A fire indication in the rear cargo hold led to the emergency call. The aircraft landed safely at 4.35pm, following which it was parked in an isolation bay. But as no fire was detected, the emergency was withdrawn an hour later.
