Airline:Swiss Global
Aircraft: Bombardier CS300
18Jun GVA to NCE (LX528) diverts to ZRH at top of descent when closer to NCE and GVA than ZRH
20Jun GVA-LHR (LX352) diverts to ZRH after crossing English Channel and passing top of descent
Same aircraft on both occurrences with generator problems.
Strange an airline would divert to an airport further than destination, and in the case of LX352 had the fuel to essentially return to Switzerland after crossing The Channel.
