CX100 in trouble?

[Patrick Malseed]

Just seen Cathay CX100 A330 overfly St Marys in a south easterly direction. Gear down at low altitude and very slow speed.
Time seen 2:35pm.
Anybody know what is going on?

I also saw the gear down overhead the Hills District.

Confirmed returned to Sydney after doing a few holding patterns out West near Richmond. Nothing else reported yet.

My wife was on the flight

Landing gear would not retract. No idea when she will finally get going

Better than it not coming down at the other end!

Couldn't miss hearing it fly over the Hills district - volume sounded like some ancient freighter; it must have been around 4000 feet. Scheduled departure now 1700 on Sunday.

Back in the game!
