Ah yes the media, it is a bit like: "Flight Lands Safely In Perth after mid flight radio broadcast"
Breaking News: A Qantas flight from Sydney to Perth (QF 565) landed safely at 9:10 am today. The Boeing 767-300 made a text book landing after the 3 hour flight carrying 220 people. Apparently the pilot called air traffic controllers mid flight, from almost 10km altitude, declaring "Ops normal". A Qantas spokesman said that this was not unusual and pilots were trained for such occurrences. The plane made an uneventful landing on arrival in Perth. No one was injured and all the passenger disembarked without incident. Passenger John Smith, when asked about how the crew handled the situation, said "Well the Captain told us what the weather was going to be like in Perth and told us the local time. His voice was very calm."
