I bet you the RAAF would be thrilled to bits, knowing that one of there prized assets are flying around 30 people from the media. And getting absolutely hammered by them for as they have insinuated that its a lemon for "breaking down" in the news reports that have been on ABC this morning.

Why can't they fly domestic? Actually I know why, and that would make the RAAF even happier to escort these people around....

Sorry Mods can you move this to discussion thread, thanks.

Thanks Bernie for the rego - just found a news story saying that there was a problem with the aircraft, so that is why they arrived in YSSY unexpectedly.

Today's Air Canada flight#34 returned to Sydney at 12:20.
Any known details?

There didn't look to be much of a fuel dump as going by flightradar24, the decision to return was made at approx 12pm.
Emergency response crews followed the aircraft in from touchdown to the gate.
Assume this would suggest it was not a medical issue?
