    THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The Royal Navy F-35 fighter jet continues to be stranded at Thiruvananthapuram airport as engineers from its aircraft carrier have failed to repair a hydraulic snag. A team of engineers is staying at the airport and continuing repair works.There’s a move to shift the jet to the hangar as it may have to be here for a long time until a team from the UK and the US can check it. Sources said different teams of technicians keep checking the plane, but are not able to fix the snag. The plane is parked in bay 4. “We have enough bays to handle commercial aircraft. The presence of fighter jet is not an issue,” an airport official said.This is the first time that the US-made, fighter jet is stranded in a foreign country.
