Rabat- A Boeing 737-8B6 belonging to Royal Air Maroc (RAM), linking Paris to Agadir declared an emergency over the Spanish city Malaga on Thursday night.
While above the Spanish city of Malga, the flight AT665 from Paris to Agadir, which was supposed to arrive in Agadir at 00.25 am, lost about 7,000 feet of altitude.
The flight disappeared from the radar for several minutes. But luckily for the passengers and their families, the aircraft reappeared on the screens and was diverted to Casablanca Mohammed V airport.
The problem was by depressurization, which forced the pilot to lower elevation to a level that is no longer detected by a radar.
Last month A Royal Air Maroc Dreamliner from New York suffered quite similar problems after it began to lose altitude.
RAM flight number AT 201 on Thursday March 2015 was en route to Mohammed V International Airport From JFK International Airport and had just taken off about 15 minutes earlier when all of a sudden it started a free fall of about 200 meters while it was trying to gain altitude.
But the pilot eventually managed to stabilize the airplane.
