State Of Emergency On Board "Belavia" Airplane?

State Of Emergency On Board "Belavia" Airplane?

Most of the flight the plane was flying at an altitude of 2700 meters with an average speed of 600 km / h.

A reader reported this to the website charter97.org.

"On 09/01/2017 I was en route to St. Petersburg from Minsk on Belavia B2941 board. Just a few minutes after takeoff, the aircraft commander announced on the loudspeaker: "Dear passengers, there are some technical discrepancies – "the display has been disconnected" and the plane can’t gain altitude. Thereby, we will fly at an altitude of about 3000 m, the flight will be longer, but we have enough fuel. Sorry for some discomfort – the engines will be working a little louder."

From there, the plane continued its flight at the height, which the passengers were not used to, but high enough to stay aloft. The passengers were nervous, but the flight went off without ant incidents, all the passengers in the cabin were applauding the pilots after the landing!

According to flightradar24, the plane was flying at an altitude of 2700 m with an average speed of 600 km / h.

It should be noted that the majority of passenger airliners fly at an altitude of 9,000 - 12,000 m.

The flight record is available here.
