## Factual narrative

The government of India has notified the NTSB of an incident involving a AIRBUS A320 airplane that occurred on March 7, 2019. A GoAir Airbus A320 powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW1127G-JM geared turbofan engines experienced a No. 1 (left) engine failure while at cruise FL380. The ENG1 HEAT SYSTEM FAULT came on followed by ENG1 OIL LOW PR warning. The No. 1 engine was shut down by the pilot and airplane was diverted to Chaudhary Charan Singh International airport (LKO), Lucknow, India where a successful single engine landing was made. After landing inspection found oil traces in the exhaust area nozzle, tail cone, drain mast and thrust reverser cowl area underneath the drain mast. The NTSB has appointed a U.S. Accredited Representative as the state of manufacturer of the engine to assist the government of India's investigation under the provisions of ICAO Annex 13. All investigative information will be released by the government of India.
