NEW DELHI: An IndiGo flight from Dibrugarh to Guwahati aborted its first landing attempt at Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International (LGBI) Airport on Sunday before making a safe touchdown on the second attempt.
The airline confirmed there was no impact on the aircraft or passengers. “Go around is absolutely a normal phenomenon during the landing of an aircraft if the pilot faces any issue. He may decide to make a second attempt for various reasons, for the safety of the passengers and there is nothing to worry about,” a company source told PTI.
Flight 6E-187 was operating on the Dibrugarh–Guwahati route. After landing safely on the second attempt and completing necessary formalities, it proceeded on its onward journey, an airport official said.
A go-around, also known as a missed approach or aborted landing, is a standard aviation safety procedure in which an aircraft discontinues its landing attempt and climbs back into the air for another approach or diversion. It can be initiated by the pilot or requested by air traffic control due to reasons such as an unstable approach, runway obstruction, or adverse weather.
