I would not like a job in QANTAS'
PR or corporate communications department right now. They must have pulled most of their hair out
A Qantas Airways flight landed safely after a problem with one of its engines on a flight from Australia to New Zealand, the company said, the latest in a series of mechanical incidents for the airline.
One of four engines on a Boeing 747-300 from Melbourne was "reduced to idle" speed while the airplane approached Auckland Airport on Wednesday night, Qantas spokeswoman Holly Williams said.
However, the pilot managed to land the aircraft with 219 passengers and 16 crew safely, she said.
