The Director General of the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Mr. Fola Akinkuotu, Sunday suspended the operations of Dana Air. General Manager, Public Affairs, NCAA, Fan Ndubuoke, who confirmed the suspension, said it was because its flight from Port Harcourt to Lagos made on air return due to technical problem. THISDAY investigations learnt that the aircraft lost one of its engines and this was the second time in a week that such an incident would happen. An informed source revealed that the aircraft had flown 38 miles away from Port Harcourt when one of the engines shut down, when it called the control tower. It was gathered that by the time it was making the air return, it had flown 45 miles with one engine, in an aircraft laden with passengers. Last year, the airline recorded a tragic air accident in Lagos that killed 153 persons on board. I think they should stop them from flying totally. My opinion. Do you think they should stop them flying or all local airlines should be stopped from flying. Share your thoughts.
