Air India non-stop from Delhi lands safely in San Francisco with 'cut' in door; probe ordered

印度航空德里直飞旧金山航班安全着陆，但舱门有“切口”，已下令调查

NEW DELHI: An Air India Boeing 777 has been grounded in San Francisco (SFO) after a “cut” was discovered in the area just below a door, on arrival there from Delhi. The flight AI 183 landed safely and the airline is investigating how and where did the area below door (L2) get damaged.

新德里：印度航空公司一架波音777客机从德里抵达旧金山时，在舱门下方区域发现一处“切口”，目前该客机降落在旧金山。这架AI 183航班已安全着陆，航空公司正在调查L2号门下方区域是如何受损的以及在何处受损的。

Fortunately, there was no cabin de-pressurisation on the Delhi-SFO flight-- one of the longest non-stops in the world in terms of distance flown. While some sources claimed there was a hissing sound coming from the door, the airline said the same is not possible since cabin pressurisation was maintained throughout the flight.

就飞行距离而言，该航班是世界上航线最长的直飞航班之一。好在该航班的机舱没有减压。尽管有消息称舱门发出嘶嘶声，但该航空公司表示，这是不可能发生的，因为机舱在整个飞行过程中都保持着增压状态。

AI spokesman Dhananjay Kumar said: “The B777 aircraft, VT-ALH, arrived in SFO as AI 183. During walk around inspection on arrival, a small cut/crack on bottom right corner of left side 2 entry door was observed. AI is trying to get help from the local aircraft maintenance repair agencies.”

印度航空发言人Dhananjay Kumar表示:“这架B777 VT-ALH飞机为AI 183航班，已抵达旧金山。巡行检查时，发现左侧2号门右下角有小切口。印度航空正试图从当地的飞机维修机构获得帮助。”

A senior AI engineering official said: “As of now whatever I am saying is prima facie and preliminary. The aircraft door was not damaged before departure from Delhi. Engineering did not do any work on this door. Aircraft boarding in Delhi took place using an aerobridge so no question of this being damaged before departure.”

印度航空一位高级工程师表示:“在离开德里前，舱门没有损坏。工程人员没有动过这扇门。在德里登机时使用的是登机桥架，所以在起飞前飞机不可能会损坏。”

“But there is a damage and we are investigating where and how could this have taken place. There is no report of hissing sound coming from the door and there was no cabin de-pressurisation,” the engineering official added.

这位工程官员补充道：“但这的确是一处破损，我们正在调查这是如何受损的。舱门没有传来嘶嘶声，机舱也没有减压。”

The aircraft VT-ALH, Boeing 777-200 long range (LR), aircraft took off from Delhi as AI 183 on Sunday (June 2) at 5.15 pm and landed in SFO at 8.09 pm same day (all timings local) after taking the Pacific route. The non-stop flight covered the 15,000-km distance in 15.5 hours.

这架波音777-200 VT-ALH远程(LR)飞机于周日(6月2日)下午5时15分从德里起飞，当天下午8时09分(当地时间)在飞越太平洋航线后降落在旧金山。直飞航程为15000公里，用时15.5小时。
