Air return some minutes after take-off from the Murtala Muhammed Airport II, Lagos.

An Airline aircraft (name withheld) en route to Abuja on Thursday morning made an air return some minutes after take-off from the Murtala Muhammed Airport II, Lagos.

It was believed that the aircraft developed a pressurization problem which affected the cooling system while flying at about 8,000 feet. The pilot properly briefed the passengers and landed safely without panic. He acted according to Standard and Recommended Practices so such incidences should not be sensationalized.

The air return was a precautionary measure to prevent any untoward occurrence. Another aircraft was made available immediately and the passengers were flown to Abuja.
