The aircraft had fortunately not yet left the ground and the pilot was able to quickly bring it under control.

The spokesman said:

Quote:

'We can confirm that an incident took place at Manchester Airport regarding flight TCX314, during take-off to the Dominican Republic.

'The aircraft developed an engine fault and returned to stand; as a precaution, the airport emergency services attended the aircraft - but at no time were passengers or crew at risk.

'We’d like to thank our customers for their patience during the delay to their flight; a replacement aircraft was used to take them on their holiday the same afternoon.'

Leave it to the Brits to carry on as normal, and take the next flight out to go on holiday! ..

& what terrific and rapid actions that pilot took which saved all those people

Thank the good Lord above that no-one was hurt.

But that aircraft, (G-OMYT) has had several problems with its Right engine in the past. A simple Google of G-OMYT shows the aircraft has had 3 engine problems, excluding this one in the past (Oct/Nov. last year).
Looks like it has a history of Compressor Stalls.
