UP TO 50 people were injured when a Qantas Airbus carrying more than 300 people made an emergency landing in Western Australia.

The flight - QF72 from Singapore - made the landing at Western Australia's Learmonth Airport before 4pm AEDT after what has been described as a "mid-air incident'',  PerthNow reports.

Police said about 50 of the 300 passengers on board the Airbus A380 had been injured.

First photos from the scene show one passenger on a stretcher, his head cut with blood visible, and another passenger in a wheelchair. See our photo gallery from the scene

Pilbara police are making their way to the airport to launch an investigation, but it is not known at this stage exactly what happened or the circumstanced leading up to the incident.

Police Media's Inspector Wayne Silver told PerthNow that the flight had landed safely, but preliminary information suggested there had been some sort of  "instrument failure'' and turbulence.

Insp Silver said there were reports of passengers sustaining severe lacerations and broken bones.

He said there were varying reports on the number of injured.

A spokeswoman for the WA Health Department said staff from Exmouth hospital were at the airport assessing people's injuries.

An emergency services worker said paramedics had boarded the Qantas aircraft and were tending to the injured.

A witness said emergency vehicles and ambulances had surrounded the aircraft.

Qantas recently launched a campaign to repair its damaged reputation after a series of safety scares.

Jel ono Kvansat bese najsigurnijiu? Al dobro je, ipak je pilot odradio poso ali i avion izdrzao.

 

U 70% slučajeva je ljudska greška uzrok nesreće, možda je i ovde, ne verujem da je avion kriv 

Bar niko nije poginuo

Izgleda da je Quantas imao dosta incidenata u poslednje vreme (nije bilo poginulih itd, ali imali su nezgodacije, ocigledno). A sto se tice Airbusa 380, nov je avion i pitanje je koliko su piloti istrenirani. A to da je ljudska greska uvek u pitanju, pa generalno jestejer sve je covek konstruisao kao i kompjutere, a kompjuteri isto mogu i da zataje.

Ne znam, jos nista ne objavljuju u ovom slucaju, no dobro je da je sve proslo bez pogibije.

Sta se dogodilo, ne znam engleski?

Ukratko, a-380 je nepredvidjeno sleteo na jedan aerodrom u Australiji, nakon incidenta u vazduhu (kakvog, ne opisuje se - sta se desilo u vazduhu ne pise). Od 300 putnika povredjeno je oko 50.
Avion je sleteo, odmah je okruzen vatrogascima, hitnom pomoci itd.
Istraga je odmah zapoceta.

To je u sustini sve. Treba cekati dalje vesti.

Dozens Injured in A330 Event Near Perth


7 October 2008: On 7 October 2008, a Qantas Airbus A330-300, with 303 passengers and 10 crew members on board, was on a scheduled international flight from Singapore to Perth. While in cruise, the aircraft reportedly experienced some type of sudden and unexpected altitude change. The crew issued a mayday call before diverting the aircraft to the airport at Learmonth, near the town of Exmouth, about 1100 kilometers or 680 miles north of its intended destination of Perth.

About 36 passengers and crew members were injured, with over a dozen severe injuries. Reportedly, several occupants were slammed into the ceiling during the event. Most of the injuries were to passengers and crew in the rear of the aircraft, and at least one person was carried off the plane in a stretcher. About 13 of the most seriously injured were flown to Perth by four aircraft from the Royal Flying Doctor Service. One flight attendant was hospitalized with suspected head and spinal injuries. Other serious injuries included fractures, lacerations, and a concussion.

Izgleda da ipak nije A380 u pitanju, na više mesta piše A330 

U Australijskim vestima tog dana pisalo A-380
Sta je sad tacno, videce se.

Papalu valja se da i ti neki put pogrešiš

Ma ja sam veliki gresnik samo tako, pravi bozji magarac i pravo je cudo sto me onaj gore cuva, da nisam najeb. za sve ove godine, ali ovde ipak nije to - pogledaj tekst koji sam postovao - to je original sa Australijskog neta i to njihov Dejli telegraf ili tako nesto slicno (u gostima mi je Australijanac, rodjak od zene, i da on nije citao te novine ne bi ja ni znao). Dakle taj tekst sam samo preneo ovde. E sad, sta je istina treba stvarno utvrditi. Licno bi voleo da nije A-380, jer to bi bilo dosta nepovoljno za taj grandiozni avion, mislim, bilo bi steta da ne zazivi, a ja za svaku 'ticu zelim da leti, brate, i da leti sto duze.
Ajd' zivio i da Bog da da su Australijanci omasili u tekstu.

Izgleda da je ipak u pitanju bio A330, a kao uzrok incidenta se spominje iznenadna pojava snažne turbulencije, zbog koje su neki putnici povređeni od
udaranja o enterijer putničke kabine. Obično pilot upozori putnike da se vežu zbog očekivane turbulencije, ali je ovde još uvek nejasno šta se dogodilo.

edit:
Evo našao sam link gde se spominje i mogućnost kvara letnih komandi ili upravljačkih površina aviona: http://www.aviationweek.com/aw/blogs/commercial_aviation/ThingsWithWings/index.jsp?plckController=Blog&plckBlogPage=BlogViewPost&newspaperUserId=7a78f54e-b3dd-4fa6-ae6e-dff2ffd7bdbb&plckPostId=Blog%3a7a78f54e-b3dd-4fa6-ae6e-dff2ffd7bdbbPost%3aa7e67c34-e85b-431d-b25f-b01da45a0d0b&plckScript=blogScript&plckElementId=blogDest

Da, da, izgleda da je ipak A-330, evo i drugih australijskih vesti jos od 7.oct:

About 36 people have been injured, many seriously, in a "sudden in-flight upset" that forced a Qantas passenger jet with 303 people on board to make an emergency landing 1200 kilometres north of Perth this afternoon.

WA police said at least 20 people suffered serious injuries, including broken bones and lacerations, following what Qantas described as a "sudden change in altitude". The airline said there were no details about what caused the incident.

- Qantas jet in mid-air emergency
- Sudden, severe loss of altitude
- 20 people seriously injured

A passenger on the flight who used to work for the Civil Aviation Safety Authority told reporters the loss of altitude was severe enough to drive people head first into the cabin ceiling, causing major injuries.

Most of the injured were at the rear of the A330 aircraft.

Were you on the flight or do you know someone who was? Message 0406 THE AGE (0406 843 243) or email scoop@theage.com.au

WA Police Commissioner Karl O'Callaghan said 36 people were injured, 20 of them seriously and were taken to Exmouth Regional Hospital.

He did not know if any of the plane's 10 crew were among the injured.

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) said the aircraft had experienced a "sudden in-flight upset'' while cruising in "level flight''.

"The crew declared a mayday and diverted the aircraft to Learmonth, near Exmouth in WA, where it landed without further incident,'' the ATSB said

The flight, QF72, was en route from Singapore to Perth where it was due to land at 2.10pm (WST).The mayday alert was issued about 1.30pm and the jet landed at Learmonth, a civil and RAAF base 40 kilometres from Exmouth, at 1.35pm.

Mr O'Callaghan said he understood the incident was caused by "some sort of systems failure".

He said his force's State Crisis Centre in Perth had been activated.

WA Police Sergeant Greg Lambert said passengers were taken to Exmouth Regional Hospital with injuries he described as "quite serious''.

The Royal Flying Doctor Service was preparing to send up to four planes to Exmouth to fly the most seriously injured to Perth, but RFDS public affairs director Lesleigh Green said none of the injuries was thought to be life threatening.

Qantas regional manager (WA) Ian Gay said two smaller Qantas planes had been sent to Exmouth to pick up stranded passengers from the flight.They were expected to arrive in Perth tonight

Two ATSB investigators were preparing to travel to Learmonth, near Exmouth, on a chartered aircraft.

Five other investigators will also go to the airport to investigate the incident.

 

heh da je A380 bio u pitanju sve do jedne svetske agencije bi to prenele kao vest br 1 a pogotovu Americke kompanije (poznat rivalitet Airbus-Boeing)


Papalu bilo bi super da ostavis link za vest tj koji je izvor

E to Papalu majstore...

Hvala 

Cudno zaista pa stalno nam prikazuju kako putnici u avionima rade na Laptopu i uveravaju kako je to potpuno bezbedno,skoro su najavili da ce ponovo dozvoliti koriscenje mobilnih telefona u avionima jer su kao otkrili da ipak ne prave smetnje navigacionim instrumentima kao i ostalim sistemima u avionu...

Znam da je tema stara 2 godine ali je pre par sati Quantas doneo odluku da povuce sve svoje airbusove A380 iz upotrebe nakon danasnjeg incidenta sa jednim od motora i prinudnog sletanja u Singapuru.
