Hubballi: A Hubballi-bound Indigo plane suffered a tyre burst while landing here, airport authorities said on Tuesday.
However, all the passengers and crew members were safe.
In an official statement, Indigo Airlines said, ”IndiGo ATR operating 6e-7979 from Kannur to Hubballi reported Tyre Burst at Hubli upon arrival yesterday (Monday) evening.
All passengers and crew are safe. Aircraft is currently under maintenance checks at Hubballi.” According to an official at the airport, the plane had touched down first 8.03 pm on Monday but due to crosswind, it took off immediately and went around.
It landed again at about 8.35 pm.
