Narrative:
The Airbus A330-300, which iFly transferred to Aeroflot on a wet lease (along with the crew), took off from Vladivostok on flight SU-5803 to Moscow. There were 345 passengers on board. Almost 2.5 hours into the flight, the pilots reported vibrations in the second engine to Air Traffic Control. The aircraft commander decided to turn around to go to an alternate airport Khabarovsk (KHV/UHHH) and descended to an altitude of 5,800 meters. An hour and a half later, the Airbus A330 landed safely, after which the aircraft was removed from service.
