The airline said the aircraft was positioning from Jersey to Mönchengladbach in Germany for “routine scheduled maintenance” on Wednesday afternoon and was not carrying any passengers.

A Blue Islands spokesperson said: “The aircraft experienced an issue with the windscreen following the failure of a heating element and diverted to Exeter where our engineering support can resolve.”
