Default QF A380 blows tyres on landing at YSSY

A Qantas A380 has just landed at Sydney and blown 2 tyres on landing. The noise from the blowout was amazing! There were sparks, flames and smoke everywhere. There is a bad smell of burning rubber coming from the plane which is on the runway at the moment surrounded by the emergency vehicles.

Just wait till this one hits the news reels. Anyone think we might see in a news report a passenger fearing for their life story?

No rego as of yet Phil. I am working over at Virgin Blue Terminal & it was a bit far to catch it. Still currently on the runway just in front of the Tower with fire trucks around it. There appears to be what looks like a couple of news helicopters hovering around it so no doubt it will definately be on the news tomorrow.

No A380s have been registered on ACARS since QF11 departed.

Don't know possibly. It is Qantas however and they tried to get some footage of the Qantas 747 landing in rain yesterday.

I noticed OQC on PlanePlotter, coming in as QF32 earlier this evening.

The aircraft is still blocking Runway 16R, currently 25 for arrivals and 16L for departure.
