In a harrowing flight incident, IndiGo flight 6E0573 bound for Bengaluru from Kolkata was compelled to make an emergency landing shortly after takeoff on August 30th. A critical engine failure mid-flight caused passengers to witness alarming sparks and smoke emitting from one of the aircraft’s engines.
Thanks to the prompt action of the flight crew, the plane safely returned to Kolkata, making a nerve-wracking yet successful emergency landing using only one engine. The aircraft had 173 passengers and crew members on board, all of whom were evacuated without any injuries being reported.
The incident, captured by passenger footage showing the vivid sparks and smoke, underscored the seriousness of the situation and the fortunate avoidance of potential disaster.
