Manx2 Airborne return engine shutdown.
A LET410, Manx2, had an in flight shut down due low oil pressure in one engine, aircraft landed safely and pax transfered to stand-by a/c to continue their journey. One elderly pax needed follow up treatment due delayed shock
Good job done in my opinion by the crew, s/e approach in a light twin, not the easiest thing in the world. I get to practise this scenario regularly in a sim, and never had to do it for real, not sure these guys get sim practice! Well done.

‘Full emergency’ at Ronaldsway
Published on Thursday 18 October 2012 15:52
THERE was a full emergency at Isle of Man Airport this afternoon (Thursday) when a Manx2.com flight reported it had lost oil pressure after take-off.
The 2pm service landed back at Ronaldsway at 2.27pm with its right hand engine switched off.
Eight passengers and two crew were on board.
A Manx2.com spokesman said: ‘After take-off on the Isle of Man to Newcastle flight today, the crew of the Van Air Europe Let410 operating the service on behalf of Manx2.com, noticed a gauge fluctuation and shut down the right hand engine as a precaution.
‘The aircraft returned to the Isle of Man and landed safely with passengers transferred to a standby aircraft, which then operated the service.’
Shortly before the flight landed back at Ronaldsway, an Isle of Man Fire and Rescue spokesman said it was ‘presently responding to a full emergency at Ronaldsway Airport.’
Half an hour later it was reported ‘the plane has landed safely and Fire and Rescue vehicles are now standing down’.

It came around 2.15pm after the crew of a Van Air Europe Let410 aircraft, flying to Newcastle on behalf of Manx2.com, noticed a fluctuation on a cockpit gauge and shut down the right hand engine as a precaution.
It's understood the problem was connected with engine oil pressure.

Is it worth making this thread sticky?
Back in the dim and distant past (2002) when I helped PP Pop moderate this forum I started similar threads to 'collect' all those sort of posts.
