Incident: Air France B773 near Goose Bay on Aug 10th 2010, cargo fire indication
An Air France Boeing 777-300, registration F-GZNF (COI configuration, 472 passenger seats) performing flight AF-344 from Paris Charles de Gaulle (France) to Montreal,QC (Canada) with 461 people on board, was enroute at FL360 about 330nm northwest of Goose Bay,NL (Canada) when the crew descended the airplane to FL200 and set course towards Goose Bay where the airplane landed safely one hour later.
Air France reported the airplane diverted as a precaution because of an unspecified systems failure. A replacement Boeing 777-300 is about to be dispatched from Paris Orly to continue the flight and is currently estimated to reach Montreal with a delay of 28 hours. Due to limited accomodation capacity in Goose Bay the passengers were given basic accomodation at the airport.
NAV Canada reported, that the crew declared emergency reporting a fire indication in the forward cargo hold. The indication was determined false.
The replacement Boeing 777-300 registration F-GSQO departed Paris Orly as flight AF-380V at 15:30L (13:30Z) on Aug 11th and is due to arrive in Goose Bay by 16:30L (19:30Z). The airplane is then estimated to depart at 18:00L (21:00Z) as flight AF-4190 and reach Montreal with a delay of 28 hours.The incident airplane is about to ferry back to Paris Orly as flight AF-381V.
So ganz traut man dem Frieden nicht so, wenn man nen Ersatz ferry nach Goose Bay schickt..... 
Und das die Version der Bestuhlung Nordamerika fliegt ist doch auch eher ungewöhnlich.....
