'Bird Strike' Causes Virgin Australia Flight from Brisbane to Perth to Make Emergency Landing
A Virgin Australia plane was left circling Brisbane Airport for over three hours last night after a "minor engineering issue".
The VA474 Perth-bound flight was due to take off around 10 pm last night when it was believed a bird collided with the plane. The pilot decided as a precautionary measure the flight should not continue. He circled the plane along the Queensland coast before returning to make an emergency landing at Brisbane shortly before 1 am this morning, leaving passengers stranded.
Virgin Australia released a statement saying the incident was due to an engineering problem. However, the airline was questioned over its decision to circle the airport rather than proceed with the five-hour flight.
