Russian plane makes emergency landing in India

NEW DELHI: -- An Il-96 aircraft of Russian carrier Aeroflot made an emergency landing at the international airport here Monday after its pressurisation control system developed snags, officials said.

"The Bangkok-Moscow Aeroflot flight was flying over India when the pilot noticed leaks in the pressurisation system. He then descended to 10,000 feet to maintain aircraft pressure," Indira Gandhi International Airport acting director Mandeep Lal told IANS.

After the automatic aircraft pressurisation system failed, the pilot again reduced altitude and maintained pressure using the manual mode.

"We made all arrangements as soon as the pilot requested permission for an emergency landing. The flight landed safely at 6.45 p.m.," Lal said.

The aircraft was carrying 108 passengers and crew. "All of them are safe," he said.

The passengers would be flown to Moscow by another Aeroflot aircraft at the earliest, even as engineers began conducting ground pressurisation checks to locate the leaks.
