    Aviation Breaking: Air India Flight AI-887 Returns to Delhi After Engine Oil Pressure Drops to Zero

    7 hours ago

    A major aviation incident was narrowly averted after an Air India flight operating from Delhi to Mumbai developed a technical fault shortly after take-off. The flight, AI-887, reportedly experienced a sudden drop in engine oil pressure to zero, prompting the pilots to immediately turn the aircraft back to Delhi. According to sources, the issue was detected just minutes after departure. Acting swiftly and following standard safety procedures, the pilots decided to abort the journey and carry out an emergency landing at Delhi airport. All passengers and crew onboard are reported to be safe, and no injuries have been reported. The aircraft involved was a Boeing 777, once again raising concerns over technical reliability, especially in light of past incidents involving similar aircraft. Aviation experts have stressed that such warnings, even when handled successfully, must be taken seriously to prevent potential disasters. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has taken cognizance of the incident and has initiated a preliminary investigation to ascertain the cause of the engine oil pressure failure. Air India officials stated that the aircraft will remain grounded until a thorough inspection is completed. While the timely decision by the flight crew prevented a major mishap, the incident has reignited questions around aircraft maintenance, technical checks, and overall flight safety standards.
