ASA Emerg. in ATL friday?

[350DRIVER]

Just got off the phone with a F/A from ASA and she mentioned something about the ASA flight that aborted once in ATL on friday that returned to the gate after hearing a "bang" on the roll, mx checked things over and said they were "ok", push back again, t-o- attempt #2, through V1 the same "bang" observed from the flight deck, they declare emerg. swing back around and land. Supposebly a "light show" showered sparks throughout as seen by ground workers..

anyone know what happened?

More likely, he was the one child left behind.

Darnit, I was heading back here to delete that before someone else pasted it. Sorry for the irrelevant personal jab, 350. I should have saved it for the political threads.

You are forgiven, that is what happens when it get's late and I don't feel like making sure all words are spelled correctly.

I spoke with the fo the next day in ops. It was a compressor stall - CR7. It was 1:30 am in ATL.

GE must be furious, they are desperate for ETOPS certification on these engines. As it is we are lucky to be able to fly over Lake Lanier.


A crew fried an engine a few weeks ago going into BTR, (not their fault), now this. I'm sure some GE program manager is feeling the heat.

Thanks Jen,

I guess it was quite a show of sparks for those on the ground as well as hearing the loud bang.

appreciate the information
