SEPANG: The Transport Ministry wants a report by Wednesday on Monday's incident in which a Malaysia Airlines flight bound for Bengaluru (Bangalore), India, was forced to turn back when aircraft's landing gear malfunctioned after take-off, said its acting minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein.

He also said although he was impressed with the way the emergency landing at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) was handled by the crew of MH192, the incident should not have happened.
