Vistara flight UK-122 landed in Delhi from Bangkok. Then engine failed

The engine on a Bangkok-Delhi Vistara flight – an Airbus A320 – failed shortly after it landed at the Indira Gandhi International Airport on Tuesday evening, an airline statement said. Vistara said flight UK-122 had an uneventful flight and touched down safely on runway 10 at IGI.

“Post runway vacation engine #2 was shut down for single-engine taxiing… at the end of runway ‘K’, engine #1 failed. ATC was informed and a tow truck was requested. Subsequently the aircraft was towed to the parking bay.”

In June, Vistara was fined ₹10 lakh for allowing a co-pilot to land an aircraft at Indore despite not having the requisite training in a simulator. The airline apologised for the ‘regrettable violation’.
