Jet engine on fire but passengers keep cool


Cathay Pacific's Airbus A330 returns to S'pore 'without incident'

SINGAPORE - Terrified passengers aboard a Cathay Pacific aircraft prayed together as their aircraft - one of its engines on fire - made its way back to Singapore yesterday, and their calm response earned praise from the captain.

Cathay Pacific Airways said the Airbus A330, bound for Jakarta with 136 passengers on board, landed back in Singapore "without incident". It said the crew shut down the engine after receiving a "stall warning".

The Hong Kong-based airline added that it and engine-maker Rolls-Royce were investigating the incident.

Changi Airport said in a statement that the plane had departed at 1.12am yesterday. But due to an engine-related issue, the aircraft turned back to the airport and landed safely at 1.57am, it said.

Reuters photographer Beawiharta was on board the plane with his wife and children. About 20 minutes after take-off, there were two sharp bangs, sending cabin staff scurrying to retrieve the meals they had only just begun serving.

The plane began shaking violently, he said, and the lights went out. He could smell something burning. His son, Pradipta, 15, then saw fire on one of the plane's engines as he peered out the window.

Said Mr Beawiharta: "... Passengers were praying: 'God, save our flight! Give us your protection!'" The prayers got louder and louder, pierced by only the occasional cry of panic.

Said Mr Beawiharta: "We all grabbed life jackets from beneath our seats but the plane landed smoothly. Within five minutes, as firefighters doused the damaged engine, we walked off the plane into the terminal."

Changi Airport said in its statement that, after the aircraft landed, its airport emergency service "responded immediately with six fire vehicles and extinguished a fire in one of the engines".

In the waiting room, the pilot greeted assembled passengers.

"The best that we can ever ask of passengers is to stay cool, stay calm ... which you did," he said. "And for that we thank you."

Last November, a blow-out in a Rolls-Royce Trent 900 engine forced a Qantas Airbus A380 to make an emergency landing in Singapore and prompted the temporary grounding of the Australian carrier's A380 fleet. Investigations established that the incident was caused by a faulty oil pipe.

You personally added in the caption with the word "Pinoyisation" which is not in the article. Where is the beef?

You mean to say you know they are Pinoys by looking at them? Are you working with a company that has access into the areas where they work?

I have no objection if the article itself says so but your addition to sensationalise the story is just guesswork on your part. Furthermore, only certain individuals are certified and allowed to inspect or work on the engines,

Please be fair and put the blame on those responsible when a report of findings has been published. We should not just shoot without verification or have some facts laid before us, thank you.

No such thing as no need certified. Training given must also pass and have certification. Not any tom, dick or harry can work on aircraft equipment without certification. Furthermore, any evidence any engineer Pinoy or otherwise did some work on that particular engine?

I have worked with aircraft engineers in the past and a number of them Pinoys. They are as good if not better than other races. Aircraft incidents happens to the best of any airlines, and not due to the race of people. In fact if you want to check, there are countries with worst aircraft related incidents namely Indonesia, Taiwan, China and Russia. Most of the airlines of Arab countries are made up of Pinoy engineers like UAE and Kuwait Airlines.

For more than 20 years I was in the airline maintenance business, airframe and engines and work with a number of people in PAL from President to artisans, also the owner of Cebu Pacific and his men and people in Air Phils. Good enough?

You tell me what you know about aircraft maintenance before asking me details as though you are somebody. Who the heck you think you are asking for such info? The next thing you want to know the names and the number of years I work together with them.

Just curious -are you referring to Janet L.C. Tan , Founder of A-Sonic Aerospace Limited ('A-Sonic Aerospace') and Chairman of Airocean Group Ltd. ?
