Air Asia - wrong turn after take off
 

Noticed that XAX223 (Air Asia flight 223 SYD-KUL) got airborne off Rwy 16R and made a LEFT turn today straight across the path of RWY 16L without a clearance. There was a QF 737 about to take off and his clearance was cancelled and this resulted in a low level go-around of a VA 737

Anyone else see this?

The Air Asia aircraft seems to be on a track way south of course now?

FR24 puts it in the same position as flightaware... just to the west of Corowa.

Does their ADL flight still operate? Possible it's gone u/s and the SYD-KUL is diverting for stranded ADL pax? Or similar for MEL?

XAX223 opb 9M-XXM today

"They are probably heading for the naughty corner".

Looks to be heading to Melbourne at this stage, maybe something mechanical?

Showing up on the Melbourne arrivals board

FR24 is showing some real screwy tracking on this aircraft??? Something must be up?

Listening to LiveATC and they did a go-around at Melbourne. I'm definitely curious as to what is going on there.

Just did a missed approach in MEL, requesting vectors back for a visual approach Rwy 16

Requesting assistance from company after landing.

Same, will be interesting to know what's going on. If it's mechanical, is there a reason they wouldn't just go back to SYD? Spare seats for some pax on a MEL-KUL later today, maybe?

Don't know whats wrong with my FR24. It shows the aircraft in the middle of the Southern ocean, not on approach to Melbourne
