The airplane, however, was able to resume its journey within three hours after making the landing on Saturday. Flight BS-315 left the Dhaka airport at 8:50am, but returned for a landing 15 to 20 minutes later, authorities said. US-Bangla spokesperson Kamrul Islam told bdnews24.com that the pilot airplane carrying 164 passengers received a signal indicating a small technical glitch soon after takeoff. The signal deactivated soon afterwards, but the pilot decided to make an emergency landing for a checkup over safety concerns. “The pilot thought that it was best to investigate the glitch as the plane was still in the Dhaka airspace.
