Overview

• Flight DE3665 from Corfu to Düsseldorf made an emergency landing at Brindisi after crew shut down the right engine following a parameter fault linked to airflow disruption.
• All 273 passengers and eight crew members disembarked safely with no injuries before being accommodated overnight and flown to Düsseldorf the next day on a replacement aircraft.
• Social media videos captured flames and sparks from the right engine shortly after takeoff, but reports differ on whether the malfunction occurred at about 1,500 feet or at cruise altitude.
• Condor Airlines says the engine warning stemmed from a disturbance in the engine’s air supply and has dispatched a technical team to inspect the Boeing 757-300.
• Both aviation authorities and Condor’s maintenance crew are investigating the incident to reconcile varying eyewitness accounts and determine the precise cause.
