A government aircraft operated by the Bundeswehr was forced to make an emergency landing at Leipzig/Halle Airport on Monday evening. This incident occurred shortly after takeoff, with the aircraft en route from Berlin to its home base in Cologne.
The flight in question was carrying the Federal Minister of the Interior, Alexander Dobrindt, who had disembarked prior to the incident. A spokesperson for the Luftwaffe confirmed the emergency landing, stating that a warning signal activated shortly after the aircraft had been in the air for approximately ten minutes. In response, the pilot diverted the plane to the designated emergency landing airport in Leipzig.
While the specific nature of the warning is still under investigation, the Airbus A319 had to land safely without any reported injuries among the passengers or crew. Emergency services, including the fire department, were positioned at the airport as a precautionary measure, which is standard protocol for such situations.
Following the incident, the aircraft remained on the tarmac at Leipzig/Halle Airport, where it is currently undergoing a thorough technical inspection by maintenance personnel. The situation has drawn attention due to its potential implications for the safety of government flights.
This is not the first time a government aircraft has faced difficulties. A notable incident occurred in 2019 when then-Foreign Minister Heiko Maas was stranded in Mali due to a malfunctioning government jet, missing his son's birthday as a result.
