[TheList] CHC airport

Can anyone shed some light on this one please?  This must of happened
yesterday...

Wondering if some of your mates might know the answer to this one.
SQ297 landed at CHC at 0856 this morning. It taxied in part way to the Gate
and stopped. It was surrounded by the Airport fire trucks and some sent out
from the City. After about 5-10 minutes, the engines were shut down and then
three ambulances arrived, sirens blaring and in a hurry. Saw them go out
onto the tarmac and they parked under the plane briefly and then moved away.
At no time were any air stairs sent out to the plane and no-one or anything
got off or on. At 0925, she was towed into the Gate by a tug closely watched
and followed by Airport Fire trucks.
Eventually, everybody got tired of what they were doing and packed up and
went home.
SQ298 left on time at 1050.
What gives???

Cheers,

Shane.
