Photos: Plane crash averted in Dubai this a.m

A Qantas flight bound for Sydney from Dubai has had to land back in Dubai after experiencing technical issues during its flight.

The Airbus A380 reportedly departed from Dubai at 10.20am and entered a holding pattern near DXB airport before returning to the ground. 

It's believed the plane experienced a pressurization issue. 
Early reports indicate it was due to a malfunctioning climate control unit but it's currently unconfirmed.
