But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:Matthew 24 : 20, For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent. Zephaniah 3 : 9

- A British Airways flight to India turned back midair after a suspected flap failure.
- The 787-8 circled for an hour to dump fuel before landing safely at London’s Heathrow Airport.
- British Airways said it wasn’t an emergency and called the return a “standard precaution.”
A British Airways flight to India dumped fuel and returned to London on Sunday after the pilots reported a suspected technical issue.
The name “London” primarily means “from the great river“. It originates from the Roman settlement called Londinium, which was situated on the River Thames. While the exact etymology is debated, one theory suggests it derives from a pre-Celtic name for the lower Thames, possibly meaning “boat river” or “swim river“. Another theory connects it to the Celtic word dun, meaning an elevated and defensible spot.
The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?Obadiah 1 : 3, How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.Revelation 18 : 7
Silence “in heaven” about the space of half an hour ⏳
Flight BA35 had departed from London’s Heathrow Airport at 1:15 p.m., more than 30 minutes behind schedule, en route to Chennai, India, with 214 passengers on board.
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.Revelation 8 : 1
However, shortly after takeoff, the pilots noticed a problem with the aircraft’s wing flaps and decided to turn the plane around as a precaution.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!Matthew 23 : 37
But Romanism as a system is no more in harmony with the gospel of Christ now than at any former period in her history. The Protestant churches are in great darkness, or they would discern the signs of the times. The Roman Church is far-reaching in her plans and modes of operation. She is employing every device to extend her influence and increase her power in preparation for a fierce and determined conflict to regain control of the world, to re-establish persecution, and to undo all that Protestantism has done. Catholicism is gaining ground upon every side. GC 565.4
The plane involved was a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, a long-haul aircraft with a range of over 7,000 nautical miles.
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,Revelation 14 : 6
Data from FlightRadar24 shows the aircraft climbed to about 15,000 feet before entering a series of holding patterns — first over southeast England and then over the English Channel — to dump fuel.
Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he daily increaseth lies and desolation; and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt.Hosea 12 : 1
Aircraft flaps are panels on the wings that extend during takeoff and landing to provide extra lift at slower speeds.
Back to Rome : Malfunctions can make landing difficult and require returning to base if discovered early in flight.

Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.Exodus 14 : 12
After about an hour of looping in the air, the Dreamliner landed safely back at Heathrow Airport at around 1:50 p.m.
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.Matthew 24 : 44
A British Airways spokesperson told Business Insider: “The aircraft returned to Heathrow as a standard precaution after reports of a technical issue.
The English Reformers, while renouncing the doctrines of Romanism, had retained many of its forms. Thus though the authority and the creed of Rome were rejected, not a few of her customs and ceremonies were incorporated into the worship of the Church of England. It was claimed that these things were not matters of conscience; that though they were not commanded in Scripture, and hence were nonessential, yet not being forbidden, they were not intrinsically evil. Their observance tended to narrow the gulf which separated the reformed churches from Rome, and it was urged that they would promote the acceptance of the Protestant faith by Romanists. GC 289.1
They shall not dwell in the LORD's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things in Assyria.Hosea 9 : 3
Back to Normal! No Fly Zone!
“The flight landed safely with crew and customers disembarking as they normally would, and our teams worked hard to get their journeys back on track as soon as possible.”
I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:Acts 11 : 5
This was not an emergency landing.
The spokesperson added that this was not an emergency landing. It is fairly common for planes to return to their home bases in the event of in-flight issues, as it makes arranging new aircraft and onward travel for passengers easier.

The incident came just three days after an Air India 787-8 crashed shortly after takeoff in Ahmedabad, killing 241 people on board.
While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.Acts 10 : 19,
A second Air India Dreamliner was also forced to return to Hong Kong on Sunday due to a separate suspected technical issue.
Hong Kong means “Fragrant Harbour” in Cantonese, referring to its natural harbor, Victoria Harbour. The name likely originates from the scent of incense or spices that were once traded or produced in the area. Hong Kong is also a special administrative region of China, known for its bustling city life, financial center, and unique blend of cultures./Jericho is known as the “City of Palms” and also as the “City of Fragrance” or “City of Perfume” due to its association with fragrant plants and aromatic oils. The name “Jericho” itself is believed to be derived from the Canaanite word for “fragrant“. The city’s location in a fertile area with abundant vegetation, including balsam groves and date palms, contributed to this reputation.
[11] As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception. [13] Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.Hosea 9 : 11, 13
