Another Qantas jet makes emergency landing

A Qantas passenger plane bound for Melbourne was forced to turn back to
Adelaide airport for an emergency landing after reporting a mechanical
problem, three days after a plane from the same airline had to land in
the Philippines with a hole in its fuselage.
Local news reports said the pilot told passengers there was a problem
with a landing-gear door above the plane’s wheel. It failed to retract
shortly after the Boeing 737-800 took off from Adelaide for Melbourne
yesterday. A Qantas spokeswoman said last night that there was no risk
to passengers’ safety during the “routine air turnback”.
