Mahan Air’s Boeing 747-300 Flies Again After 5 Years of Maintenance

Mahan Air’s 35-year-old Boeing 747-300 has now started to fly again, after over five years of maintenance and heavy C-check in Tehran.
This Boeing 747-300 is the world’s last passenger Boeing 747-300 aircraft that was parked at Tehran’s Mehrabad International Airport after suffering an engine failure in October 2015, AirLive reported.
The aircraft, registered under EP-MNE, was on a domestic flight from the Mehrabad airport to Bandar Abbas International Airport with 19 crew and 422 passengers when the aircraft suffered engine failure.
Following the damage to two engines shortly after departure, the fuselage was also damaged during the incident. However, the aircraft safely landed at Tehran some 40 minutes after departure.
