SINGAPORE: Tigerair flight TR2638 to Chennai was forced to return to Changi Airport on Friday (Oct 16) after the crew was advised that the cowling of the aircraft's left engine had fallen off.*

In an email statement to Channel NewsAsia on Saturday, an airline spokesperson said a mayday call was made "as a precaution and in order for the pilot to secure priority for landing and the necessary ground assistance".*

"The pilot then commenced a turn back, bringing all passengers and crew safely back to Singapore," the spokesperson said, adding that the flight, which departed Singapore at 8.46pm on Friday, returned to Changi Airport on the same day at 11.20pm.*

IPO was 1.65 and even after taking into account the rights issue the current price is way down. Worth a punt around the 27 cent level at current fuel prices.

What is a cowling? A young cow in India? Must be sacred.

Any bad news regarding GLCs and their crappy subsidiaries is good news to me.

Have you heard of catching a falling knife
There are good reasons why the price of Tiger Air is so low & things are unlikely to improve because the same management is in charge.

It is a reckless investment & to use taxpayers money to gamble is criminal & irresponsible.

Also, you're giving money to a shitty company, essentially rewarding it for shitty business practices.

Friends don't let friends fly Tigerair or Scoot.

You give basically bad advice on most topics because your hate has made you blind. Your viewpoints on most topics are very biased and narrow. It is a shame because you are quite widely read and can help people but instead you stumble them.

You and your lot keep insisting that 'hate has made us blind'. Au contraire, shill. We see clearly because of the hate. You got it backwards.

If you wish to 'grow your money' by taking a punt the stock market casino, there are far better options than a shitty local budget airline.
