Interesting that, according to the article, passengers onboard were told they were turning back because it was experiencing "minor issues". At least some pax must have deduced what was going on when the RSAF fighter aircraft showed up alongside to escort the aircraft back to Changi. Also, Scoot's 787-9 is equipped with wifi. Wonder if any pax saw coverage of the incident live, while they were still in the air.
