A good ending had the 123 passengers and the crew of the “Boing 731”, which belonged to EASY JET air company.
The airplane was flying from Athens to London, Gatwick Airport. A while after the plane took off from “El. Venizelos” at 11:05 and while it was over Karystos Island, the pilot discovered an engine problem. He asked for a forced landing and after doing some circles over the sea emptying the fuels, it landed safely at 11:39.
The Greek airport in the meanwhile had taken all the necessary measures in case of the forced landing. Source: Kathimerini News
