I see that G-TUIC as TOM126, which should be on its way to Orlando, is now in a racetrack pattern over the Irish Sea west of Liverpool. Looks to me like it might be dumping fuel for a return to Manchester.
Anyone got any more info?

Looks to have left the hold and returning to Manchester. Now landed safely.

Not sure if I would want to fly in one of these at this time. It reminds me of the early days of the Douglas DC-10's. Lots of problems and not very reliable.

Seems that G-TUIC's electrical(?) problems were easily solved as it's now on the way to Cancun - good luck!
