    Problem - flight EK434 Couldn't Land on Sunday 24th Nov???
    I saw this live but you can playback the history. You will see the plane on approach to the runway then diverting to go way beyond Whangaparoa Heads, then turn west from north of Orewa, circle around all over the place. Then over my place in Northcote at about 350kph (normally 550) and head way eastwards way out into the Hauraki Gulf before coming in to land again.
    This is something very unusual.
    I have never seen such a long diversion. It would be interesting to know why they couldn't land as there was nothing wrong with the runway. Other smaller planes landed and departed within this time so there was nothing wrong with the runway.

    Landing Gear? Instrumentation unstable?
