According to the SACAA, the aircraft took off from Johannesburg's OR Tambo International Airport (ORTIA) and was destined to land at Pietermaritzburg Airport 30 minutes later. Soon after takeoff, however, defenceWeb reports that the crew noticed that the aircraft's nose gear was malfunctioning and decided to return to ORTIA for an emergency landing. The crew managed to land the aircraft safely and no one was injured.
