Passenger tampering with door

Just heard an aircraft (passenger jet) returning to Melbourne as a passenger was tampering with the emergency exit.

Looks like police will be involved. Over did it last night perhaps?

Stay tuned.....

VHF

Qlink perhaps? I got the number but couldn't catch the prefix. Whoever it was, was using a Qantas gate and said they notified Qantas ground staff of their security requirements upon arrival.

Surprised it's not on the news, they are probably on holiday today in terms of local news.

Good work, yep, that's definitely it. Have been flying all day and didn't get a chance to look it up. Thanks for that
