Unusual Diversion
Yesterday 24 Jan there was a rather unusual occurrence. A Singapore airlines A350 operating the SQ52 from Singapore to Manchester made two approaches to Manchester and then diverted to East Midlands squawking 7700 where it landed safely. Nothing else diverted from Manchester that morning and operations seemed normal. I doubt if a Singapore passenger aircraft has ever visited East Midlands before. It seems odd that this one aircraft had problems and had to squark 7700 as a fuel emergency.
