Aer Lingus flight from Manchester to New York JFK was cancelled after 15-year-old aircraft suffered hydraulic leak right before departure.
Aer Lingus flight #EI45 was cancelled on 02 Sep 2024 when the aircraft was about to depart from Manchester airport.
The Airbus A330-302 lined up on runway 23L at Manchester when the crew suspected a hydraulic leak.
The pilots vacated the runway and taxied back to the terminal. The flight was later cancelled.
The day before, the same aircraft was lined up on runway 05L when the crew had to restart the takeoff procedure due to an issue on board.
Today, the same aircraft (registration G-EIDY) is scheduled to perform flight #EI45 to New York JFK.
