The jet was unable to return to its aircraft carrier while on a flight, the H.M.S. Prince of Wales, because of weather conditions and was diverted to the Thiruvananthapuram International Airport, the British High Commission in New Delhi said in a statement. After landing at the airport, the jet developed an engine issue, the high commission said. There are a couple of options to get the jet back to Britain, the airport official said. British engineers will likely try to fix it at one of the airport’s maintenance hangers, then fly it out.
