Qantas 575 Evacuation in Sydney

Although this incident occurred nearly one month ago, I thought this forum community may be interested in it.

 

Qantas Flight 575 was climbing out of Sydney on December 15, 2019 when the crew received indication of a hydraulic leak, stopped the climb at FL230, and returned to Sydney for a safe landing on runway 34L about 45 minutes after departure. About 20 minutes later the aircraft was towed to the apron. Already on the apron mist began to reduce visibility in the cabin, passengers began to complain about sore eyes and itchy throats. Once the tow stopped at the stand, the captain initiated an evacuation via slides and emergency services responded.

No drama, almost nonchalant calls.

That's a good thing; it was handled very professionally ?
