Precisely. The passengers and crew located in downtown Auckland hotel, injured to Middlemore Hospital, none of them reported serious, though hostie now has a broken leg and was at the rear of the aircraft. The aircraft was undergoing safety checks before possible departure this afternoon/evening. Cats advised as problem, over Tonga. I watched both NZ and Nine news, and neither gave anything other than the facts. Remarkable it wasn't "life or death struggle over Pacific" as usual.
