A Qantas Airbus A380-800, registration VH-OQE performing flight QF-32 from London Heathrow,EN (UK) to Singapore (Singapore), was enroute at FL350 overhead Poznan (Poland) about 95 minutes into the flight, when the crew reported smoke in the cockpit, stating a bit later that the smoke had cleared. They decided to return to London while dumping fuel at FL340. The airplane landed safely on Heathrow's runway 27L 90 minutes after turning around.
