Turmoil in the sky | SpiceJet snags: One lands in Pak, windshield cracks in other

Technical malfunctions for low-cost carrier SpiceJet seem to be growing by the day. On Tuesday as the airline’s Delhi-Dubai flight was diverted to Karachi due to a malfunctioning fuel indicator, its Kandla-Mumbai flight did priority landing in Mumbai city after cracks developed on its windshield mid-air.

The two incidents of Tuesday have taken the total number of technical malfunction incidents on SpiceJet aircraft — which have taken place in the last 17 days — to seven.

Aviation regulator, Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is investigating all the seven incidents, officials said.
