Smoke seen pouring from Qantas jet
A QANTAS jet caused alarm at Brisbane's domestic airport today when smoke poured from its landing gear as it touched down on the tarmac.
A spokesman from Qantas said the smoke had been caused by hydraulic
fluid leaking onto the tyres of flight 969 from Townsville.
The smoke did not impair the landing and the plane touched down at 8.02am.
The spokesman said passengers were kept informed at all times about the problem.
The flight was supposed to take off for Mt Isa at 8.35am but the plane remained grounded for closer inspection.
A second plane was used for the service to Mt Isa which departed at 9.05am.
