Mustn't have been VA's day, although it seems the ARFF got a workout!

Not long after the incident on the ground, another Va 737 took off and had to return to Hobart with flap problems. Only 1900m odd LDA at Launceston and 1800m at Hobart with a displaced threshold to add complexity. Literally ran out of parking spaces with two JQ aircraft and 3 VA aircraft on the ground at once.


Feel for the incident crew, everybody makes mistakes, so ease up
