G YMMM On January 17th 2008 crash landed short of the runway at London's Heathrow Airport. Both engines failed to respond to an autothrottle demand for a power increase as the aircraft passed through 700ft on its final approach. Investigators have ruled out fuel exhaustion, fuel contamination, physical obstruction in the fuel supply lines or filters, or fuel pump failure. There is no sign of any failure of the engines or their control units. The study continues - Fight International July 2008

VH-OJK had a serious accident on the 25th July 2008 involving an exploding oxygen bottle. It appeared that the aircraft's number 4 oxygen cyclinder failed, rupturing the aircraft's fuselage and propelling the cyclinder up through the cabin floor before impacting the R2 door handle, resulting in the cyclinder valve breaking off. The cyclinder then continued travelling upward, impacting the overhead storage bin above the R2 door, before falling back through the hole in the cabin floor and out of the aircraft through the hole in the fuselage. (Australian Aviation October 2008) - due to return to service in November 2008
VH-OJM 07.01.08 suffered the loss of some flight instruments during its approach but landed safely. The cause was a water leak in the forward galley that had penetrated the avionics bay through a crack in the glassfibre drip shield that is supposed to protect the bay from water ingress. It caused the loss of several electrical busbars supplying systems and instruments - flight international july 2008 - Taken at Kingsford Smith Airport, Sydney in November 2008 (N2523)
