A Singapore airlines 777 had too land here in alice thismorning due too a inflight medical emergency.Landed around 7am.Aircraft was on the ground for 3 to 4 hours. 2ton of freight was unloaded then reloaded, the aircraft was refueled and departed for Adelaide for another fueling stop and eventually it went to sydney.Speaking too the QF engineers on tarmac there was a fair bit of confusion as too how much freight too come off and how much fuel too take on.Watched aircraft depart off runway 30 and the mains left the ground right on the 1000ft markers,hot and heavy!
