A Flybondi Boeing 737-800, registration LV-HKS performing promotional flight FO-2710 from Cordoba,CD to Cordoba,CD (Argentina), was in the initial climb out of Cordoba's runway 36 when the crew stopped the climb at about 5500 feet due to a right hand engine (CFM56) EGT overtemperature indication, reduced the engine to idle thrust and returned to Cordoba for a safe landing on runway 36 about 13 minutes after departure.

The airline reported the aircraft was on a test flight when a minor technical problem occurred prompting the crew to return to Cordoba prematurely.

The aircraft attempted departure for another test flight on Jan 23rd 2018, however, needed to reject takeoff at high speed due to another engine EGT overtemperature indication.

The airline is about to start regular service on Friday Jan 26th 2018.
