A Transavia Boeing 737-800, registration PH-HZO performing flight HV-5749 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Casablanca (Morocco), was in the initial climb out of Amsterdam’s runway 09 when the crew declared PAN PAN PAN reporting they had smoke in the electrical recirculation. The aircraft levelled off at FL060 and returned to Amsterdam for a safe landing on runway 18C about 13 minutes after departure. The aircraft taxied to the apron with emergency services following the aircraft. A replacement Boeing 737-800 registration PH-HZK reached Casablanca with a delay of 3.5 hours.
