Go First plane's windshield cracks mid-air, probe on

New Delhi, July 20

A Go First flight heading from Delhi to Guwahati was diverted to Jaipur after the A320neo aircraft’s windshield cracked mid-air. This is the third incident of technical malfunction on a Go First aircraft in two days. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is investigating the incidents.

After the pilots saw the crack, they wanted to return to Delhi but could not do so due to heavy rain on Wednesday afternoon, the officials said, adding the A320neo plane was then diverted to Jaipur.

A Go First’s spokesperson said, “The pilot in command was well experienced and handled the issue diligently.”

On Tuesday, Go First’s Mumbai-Leh and Srinagar-Delhi flights faced snags and were grounded.
