DHL plane experiences engine blowout
Bahrain International Airport was temporarily closed on 10 April, after a DHL cargo plane’s engine experienced a “blowout” on the runway. According to reports, the Airbus A300’s engine damage was caused by a bird.
“DHL confirms that on 10 April, an ACT Airlines A300-B4 cargo aircraft failed to take off from Bahrain Airport due to technical problems. The crew is safe and there is no damage to the freight on board. ACT and DHL are cooperating with the Bahrain Civil Aviation Affairs investigation into the incident,” said a DHL spokesperson.
