Landing Gear Issues: ATR Aircraft Returns to Plaisance

In a recent incident on Friday afternoon, October 25th, passengers on a flight bound for Rodrigues experienced a moment of anxiety when their ATR 72 aircraft was forced to turn back to Plaisance Airport.

The aircraft encountered a mechanical issue that prevented its landing gear from retracting properly.

Fortunately, the flight was able to land safely back at the airport without any complications.

Following the incident, the airline promptly rebooked the passengers on a subsequent flight to Rodrigues.

While the situation was unsettling for those on board, there were no injuries reported, and the quick response from the crew ensured the safety of all passengers.
