QF 533 VH-ZXC Makes a return to Brisbane.

[Michael Dawson]

Hi All,

Was at the airport today in anticipation of the JQ A321 turning up instead we were treated to a Emergency return of a Qantas 767. It took off and the wheels remained down for quite sometime, when the tower asked if everything was ok they replied that yes it is, but we did have some severe vibrations on take off, and we will troubleshoot and get back to you in the meantime the aircraft remained at a lower altitude and out over the bay. About 10 minutes later aircraft declared a Pan Pan Pan and elected to return to the airport with Crash Tenders on standby. The aircraft landed safetly with and pulled off the runway while crash tenders & airport saftey vechiles inspected the runway and the crew decided it was then safe to taxi back to the terminal.

Aircraft with Crash tender behind it.



Regards
