A GoAir Airbus A320-200N, registration VT-WGB performing G8-345 from Kochi to Mumbai (India) with 166 people on board, was enroute at FL300 about 115nm south of Goa (India) when the crew decided to divert to Goa, where the aircraft landed safely about 45 minutes later. Passengers reported an engine (PW1127) sounded strange already when the aircraft departed. About an hour later the crew announced the aircraft had developed a technical problem and they were diverting to Goa. About 30 minutes after landing passengers were told an engine had failed.
