A cargo freighter owned and operated by ABX Airborne Express was forced to return to ground minutes after takeoff yesterday after a warning light flashed in the cockpit yesterday.
Director General of the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA), Zulficar Mohamed, confirmed that no fire was found.
Caribbean Airlines (CAL), in a separate statement, insisted that the aircraft was not a passenger one.
CAL said the aircraft departed Cheddi Jagan International Airport at 10.52hrs but returned to ramp at 11.03hrs due to a fire warning light indicator in the cockpit.
“CJIAC emergency response was activated by Fire, Health and GDF. The aircraft landed without incident. It was checked and no evidence of fire was detected.
