Aussie humour or not, poor taste old chap.

300 pax and crew onboard EK521 and 300 walked away. A good day for aviation safety i would say.
Kudos to all the tech crew involved.

Yup, could of been much worse. PAX scrambling to retrieve their carry on!

Sorry, thread drift. Back to QF1.

Passengers on a Qantas flight to Dubai that was forced to turn back to Sydney due to an on-board emergency will fly out again on Thursday morning.

The QF1 flight had been going an hour on Wednesday afternoon when a cabin temperature warning light came on prompting the captain to make the call to return to Sydney.

Qantas said that overnight, engineers inspected the aircraft and fixed the fault, but passengers have lamented the delay to their travel plans.

Seems to be quite a few issues with the A380....many diversions in the news

Worlds best practice, what would you expect?

[Horatio Leafblower]

....but to be fair, we seem to be dropping 777s and not A380s...

Looking at QF1, there seems to be more diversions than successful arrivals....

[Capt Fathom]

How did you come up with that?
