A SHANGHAI- BOUND Air India flight from Mumbai, carrying 172 passengers, made a precautionary landing at the Indira Gandhi International Airport ( IGIA) in Delhi on Saturday morning after it developed a technical snag.
The flight was scheduled to arrive at 4:55 pm, but the pilot asked the Air Traffic Control for a precautionary landing at around 5:07 pm as he got faulty readings of the hydraulics of the plane.
Another 6,010 planes reported engine loss, an aborted takeoff, or precautionary landing after hitting birds.
