New Delhi: In another Dreamliner scare, the windshield of an Air India Boeing 787 cracked on a flight from Mumbai to Delhi on Saturday. This is the second time in just over a month that such an incident has been reported.
In the latest incident, the aircraft (VT-ANJ) also had a badly damaged landing gear door. The damage was discovered when the aircraft was being prepared for a flight to Frankfurt.
AI sources say the windshield cracked while landing in Delhi and there was no risk to the aircraft. "The landing gear door was damaged by a foreign object. We are investigating what caused the windshield to crack. We will contact Boeing regarding this," said a senior official. The DGCA has ordered a probe into Saturday's incident.
