This was a story on Bloomberg back on Friday last week (03 Dec 04):

Austrian Air Plane Makes Emergency Landing, Press Trust Says


By Gautam Chakravorthy
Dec. 3 (Bloomberg) -- An Austrian Airlines flight with 300
passengers on board made an emergency landing at the southern
Indian city of Chennai after one of its engines developed a snag,
the Press Trust of India reported, citing people at the airport
it didn't name.
The plane, bound for Kuala Lumpur from Vienna, made the
emergency landing at 4 a.m. local time and all the passengers
were taken safely to the airport lounge, the report said.

(Press Trust of India 12-3)


Hope it wasn't The Don...
