A Qantas 747 has made an emergency landing in the Philippines capital Manila because of a large rupture in the plane's undercarriage.
The plane was travelling from London to Hong Kong, and none of the passengers have been seriously injured.
Speaking from the Manila airport, Melbourne woman Dr June Kane says she heard a loud bang from underneath the plane, and saw debris fly through the cabin.
"I'm looking at the plane now and on the left hand side, just forward of the wing, there's a gaping hole from the wing to the underbody," she said.
"It's about two metres by four metres and there's baggage hanging out so you assume that there's a few bags that may have gone missing."
