Disabled aircraft on runway at Ayers Rock

Just heard that Ayers Rock aerodrome is closed due to disabled aircraft on runway. Apparently a departing heavy had a hydraulic failure & is now blocking the runway.

Maybe they'll turn it into a McDonalds burger joint. It might be the cheaper option.

Why didn't he just ferry out one inop?

Oh, thats right, only two engines

Revenge, revenge for the slighted 146! Two hydraulic failures in 737s and a fumes in a 330! Welcome to the Dark Side,
