Incident on Swiss flight Geneva-Moscow today

[kbonotis]

Swiss morning flight from Geneva to Moscow today had to divert back to Zurich after captain announced a "technical problem" to passengers.
Landing approach was quite "bumpy" and "scary" (according to pax) and fire engines were waiting at the end of the runway. Pax disembarked uneventfully at gate.

Anyone has more news on this?

Possibly drunk and obnoxious R******* out of control.

Bumpy, scary landings are a bit of Swiss speciality :}:E

But seriously though, ZRH has some lovely crosswinds.

Assuming 14 as the landing runway, and with the local terrain factors, would have been (from experience) quite lively on approach;)
