The Aviation Herald reported that passengers on last night's flight from Boston to Munich were going to have a lot of fun.
The flight was scheduled to leave Boston at 8:05PM on November 8, 2022. The registration code for the flight was D-aihp.
The plane only came back to service in August of 2022, after being in storage for a long time. The A340s were supposed to be retired by the airline, but they were brought back temporarily until the A350s are delivered. I don't think so...
The flight left Boston as planned, but stopped at a higher altitude. The pilots told air traffic controllers that they needed to return to Boston because of engine issues.
After leaving Boston, the A340 had to dump some fuel and make a safe return.
The flight was given a second chance after 3.5 hours after returning to Boston. Passengers were happy that they would still get to their destination despite the delay.
The flight went up to 27,000 feet after taking off. Guess what happened next. The plane stopped climbing. The pilots had to return to Boston because of a minor engine issue. After dumping fuel, the plane returned to Boston just over an hour after it left. The flight was canceled after 2 AM.
There were a lot of passengers on the flight. The A340 had an engine issue and had to return to Boston. The A340 took off again, had an engine issue, dumped fuel, and returned to Boston.
There have been many double diversions to the same airport in the last few weeks, including a Finnair A330 to Helsinki, an Aer Lingus A330 to Hartford, and a TUI737 to Brussels.
What do you think about this diversion?
There is a tip to Klaus.
