Qantas Boeing 767 engine problem & "emergency" landing
Apologies .. but I guess it's topical at the moment ...
from 'The West Australian' November 12 6.30pm
A Qantas jet carrying 234 passengers was forced to return to Perth today after its crew detected severe vibrations in an engine.
The Boeing 767 was ascending just minutes after take-off when the captain declared an emergency, contacted air traffic control and requested permission to return to Perth.
The plane, which was bound for Melbourne, landed safely.
Qantas booked passengers on other flights but a spokesman said they could be delayed by up to five hours.
Engineers are examining the plane tonight.
