Chennai: A Port Blair-bound Air India flight (AI-549) was delayed after one of its tyres burst, moments before it took off from the Chennai airport, on Monday.
The plane with 75 passengers on board was being taxied to the runway for takeoff at 10.20 a.m. when the right tyre on the rear burst.
The plane was stranded for close to 40 minutes and brought back to its bay. The flight, originally scheduled to leave at 5 a.m, was rescheduled to leave at 10.20 a.m. due to non-availability of aircraft and the tyre burst delayed it by another three hours. Alternative arrangements
