On 23 May 2025, M/s Sky Wings Piper PA-34-200T aircraft Reg No. AP-BOG experienced No. 1 engine failure during taxi at Jinnah International Airport (JIAP), Karachi. The aircraft was scheduled for a training flight involving circuits and Instrument Landing System (ILS) Approaches on Runway (R/W) 25L at JIAP, Karachi. The aircraft initially started engines and began taxiing from Hamilton hangar after obtaining start-up clearance. Air Traffic Controller (ATC) cleared the aircraft for ILS Approaches and assigned a transponder code. While holding short of R/W 25L at Taxiway “F”, the pilot requested to return to the hangar. During this process, the pilot reported an engine No. 1 failure and inability to maneuver the aircraft. The aircraft was subsequently shut down on Taxiway “F”, and ground assistance was requested. The aircraft was ultimately towed back to the General Aviation hangar and parked.
