Engine trouble leads to emergency landing of Rossiya Airlines’ Boeing 777
A Boeing Co. 777 aircraft operated by Rossiya Airlines made an emergency landing in Moscow at 4:44 a.m. local time due to engine trouble.
The incident comes days after debris from a similar aircraft flown by United Airlines Holdings Inc. fell onto Denver suburbs during an emergency landing after one of its engines suffered a catastrophic failure.
The Rossiya Air flight was operating as a cargo service from Hong Kong to Madrid, according to an employee at Sheremetyevo International Airport, who declined to be named. Neither Boeing nor Rossiya Air were immediately available for comment.
