There was pandemonium at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos on Wednesday, as an Overland Airways Ilorin-Lagos flight experienced an ‘unusual high turbine temperature’ that resulted to fire in one of its engines.

The aircraft, OF1188, an ATR with registration marks 5N- BRQ, and 33 passengers from Ilorin, experienced the high turbine temperature in Lagos around 7:50pm.

The incident happened when one of the engines caught fire mid-air as the plane was approaching the airport.

33 passengers onboard the flight were safely disembarked at the international wing of the airport.

It was learnt that the Pilot-in-Command of the ATR-42 Aircraft had declared a May Day which in aviation parlance implies an emergency situation while authorities at the airport had activated all emergency procedures as the crew tried to safely land the plane.

The airline confirmed the incident on Thursday in a statement obtained by DAILY GIST, saying the passengers remained calm all through the process.
