RE: British Airways
The doors on both engines of the flight that made an emergency landing at Heathrow last week had been left unlatched, investigators have found. Air accident experts said the coverings - the fan cowl doors - broke off and punctured the right engine's fuel pipe, damaging the aircraft's systems. A fire then broke out in the right engine of the Airbus A319 British Airways flight to Oslo. The jet landed safely and its 75 passengers and crew were evacuated. The aeroplane returned to Heathrow soon after taking off last Friday when black smoke was seen coming from an engine. The findings were made in an interim report by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB), which is examining the cause of the emergency. |
