Jetstar in emergency landing in Bali
23 July 2007An engine failure has forced a brand new Airbus A330-200 carrying more than 300 Jetstar passengers to Melbourne from Bangkok to divert for an emergency landing at Bali’s Denpasar Airport.
The captain of the Jetstar flight headed for Bali after the aircraft’s computer system detected the fault and shut one engine down.
Flying for almost an hour on one engine, the jet landed at Denpasar about 6.45am (AEST), stranding its 302 passengers and 12 crew for an unwanted 17-hour stopover.
