This Is How German Air Force Planes Rescued A Jet Airways Flight As It Lost Contact With Air Traffic Control


Recently, the Mumbai-London Jet Airways flight lost contact with the Air Traffic Control leaving the crew slightly worried about the safety of the 777-300ER aircraft. But the German Air Force came to the rescue of the Jet Airways flight 9W-118 as they escorted the plane for a brief period while flying over Cologne.

Watch the incredible footage of the German Air Force fighter here:

The video was captured by a British Airways plane and you can see the fighter jets scrambling to help the JA plane in the video. The JA pilots later informed that they communicated with the Eurofighters over the emergency frequencies and later safely reached London.

β€œJet Airways has duly reported the matter to the concerned authorities including the DGCA. As part of the standard process, the flight crew of 9W 118 has been de-rostered pending investigation,” an official statement from Jet Airways said.
