Guwahati-Bound Go First Flight's Windshield Cracks Mid-Air, Diverted To Jaipur

Guwahati: A tragedy was narrowly averted after a Go First Delhi-Guwahati flight was diverted to Jaipur as its windshield cracked mid-air, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) officials informed on Wednesday.

As per reports, the flight did not land back in Delhi as the weather in the national capital was not favourable. Hence, it was forced to make an emergency landing in Jaipur.

Eventually, the flight landed safely and all the passengers on board were reported to be safe.

Earlier on Tuesday, two Go First flights were diverted due to engine snags following which the aircraft has been grounded till the matter is resolved.

The DGCA added that the flights will be allowed to operate after they get clearance from the authority.

GoAir A320 aircraft VT-WGA flight from Mumbai to Leh was diverted to Delhi due to Engine No.2 EIU (Engine Interface Unit) fault. Meanwhile, another flight, Go Air A320 aircraft VT-WJG flight G8-6202, from Srinagar to Delhi was diverted to Srinagar due to Engine no. 2 EGT over the limit, reported ANI citing DGCA.
