ATR contaminated air

Incident: Azul AT72 at Curitiba on Dec 11th 2023, burning odour on board


An Azul Linhas Aereas Avions de Transport Regional ATR-72-212A, registration PR-AKJ performing flight AD-5096 from Curitiba,PR to Cascavel,PR (Brazil), was accelerating for takeoff from Curitiba's runway 15 when a burning smell became detectable on board of the aircraft. The aircraft stopped the climb at 7000 feet and returned to Curitiba for a safe landing on runway 15 about 17 minutes after departure.

Brazil's CENIPA reported during the takeoff phase a burning odour was noticed, the crew decided to return to the airport of origin for an uneventful landing.
