More concerns for Qantas.
Passengers on board a Melbourne-bound Qantas flight says the aircraft had to return to Adelaide Airport tonight because of a mechanical problem.
Passenger Rocco Russo says he heard a rattling noise about 10 minutes after take-off.
He says the pilot told passengers there was a problem with a door closing above the plane's wheel.
"He then continued to fly and said that he was going to contact the engineers and then a few minutes after that came back on and said the engineers had gotten back to him and the advice was to return to Adelaide," he said.
Qantas is yet to comment.
