I don't know about the later flights but there was a fiasco earlier in the day (Saturday) with a JQ 330 (JQ19 I think) that had brake issues.

It taxied to Tango 6 holding point and had to be towed back to gate 4 (I think) for a couple of hours to fix (the pax stayed on board) and then back to Tango 6 again for departure. It then broke down again briefly but inpinging on 34L so China Southern had to go around and for sure some other craft were inconvenienced as well.

It was a farce really. What's the go with these 330's? Is it just me or do these things have reliability issues?
