As the Queensland and Northern Territories Aerial Services Limited, Qantas is one of the biggest and most established airlines in the world. It was established in 1920. With service between Darwin, Australia, and Singapore, Qantas launched its international flight operations in 1935. As its inaugural jet service, Qantas flew a Boeing 707 from Sydney to San Francisco via Nadi, Fiji, and Honolulu, Hawaii, in 1959. The airline stopped operating at SFO on April 5, 2020, owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ivar C. Satero, the airport director, remarked, “We are delighted to welcome Qantas back to SFO.” “As the oldest continuously operational airline in the world, we have a rich history together and are eager to start the new chapter today. We appreciate Qantas’ dedication to SFO and are confident that this service will be a success going forward.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has launched an inquiry following reports that metal fragments were discovered at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport after an Air India Express flight made an emergency landing on Monday evening.
The emergency landing was prompted by a detected engine fault, but fortunately, the landing was executed safely without any injuries to the passengers.
The situation began when crew members of the Air India Express flight reported an engine issue, leading to the emergency landing. The DGCA has confirmed that a thorough investigation is underway and has directed that the aircraft undergo a comprehensive safety inspection.

The discovery of metal debris outside the airport has raised concerns, prompting the DGCA to probe whether these fragments are linked to the aircraft involved in the emergency landing. Authorities are particularly focused on whether the metal pieces, which were found near the airport, originated from the same Air India Express flight that experienced engine trouble.
While preliminary assessments suggest that the debris could be a broken blade from an aircraft engine, the exact source remains unconfirmed. The airline has yet to verify if the metal fragments are from their aircraft.

The Delhi Police, working in conjunction with the DGCA, have initiated their own investigation to determine the origin of the metal pieces. A technical team is set to analyze whether the fragments are associated with the aircraft in question. As the investigation continues, a case has been filed with the airport authority to address the matter.
