We then get another Qatar flight, using the Qatar callsign, arrive around 5.30 pm and leaves around 10.30 pm
Despite the day being very overcast, dull and cold, with heavy showers forecast, my wife, daughter and I headed out to the airport as I hadn't seen the special livery yet and wanted to see it. Another draw card to go out, was, there was a United Airlines 777 still on the ground. This aircraft should have left at 10.30 am Friday. It was cancelled due to mechanical issues and was due to depart at 3.00 pm yesterday.
We watched the United aircraft push back and get released from the tug, then it sat where it was for almost an hour. Sadly, for the crew and passengers, the aircraft returned to the gate for the second time. I did hear the pilots tell ground control; they hope to be away within the hour.
The flight ended up departing at 8.50 pm.
