It would seem a technical problem still exists with this aircraft. Operating flight AM203 today 25th October the pilot was required to manually engage the landing gear again after a circuit breaker tripped on approach to YSSY. According to the pilot the aircraft is to be 'checked over' after landing. Again this flight can be tracked on fr24 from approx. 01:15 UTC;
