Air Arabia Flight Encounters Control Issues En Route from Casablanca to Istanbul

The passengers of the Casablanca-Istanbul flight had a big scare following an incident that occurred mid-flight. After taking off with a delay due to maintenance work from the economic capital, the Airbus A320-200 of the airline Air Arabia Maroc encountered flight control problems. The pilots had difficulty stabilizing the plane, which was tilted 3 degrees to the left. After consultation with the flight distribution and maintenance services, the flight was able to continue normally to Istanbul. The aircraft landed without any other incident.

The plane could not take off immediately and was still on the ground in Istanbul 12 hours after landing, reports the specialized website Aviation Herald. More scare than harm therefore for the passengers and crew members.
