On 25 August, a Brussels Airlines Airbus A320 (registered OO-TCH) operated flight SN3289 between Brussels, Belgium and Tel Aviv, Israel. After departure, the aircraft maintained flight level 290 before making a descent to flight level 200. The pilots entered into a few holding patterns before returning to Brussels.
An website forum member (the editors know his/her identity) has told Aviation24.be that the aircraft suffered a lightning strike during this morning’s thunderstorms and downpours.
Regulation-wise and as a precaution, the aircraft safely returned to its home base.
The airline cancelled the flight, and the subsequent return flight (SN3290).
OO-TCH is scheduled to operate this evening’s flight towards London Heathrow.
