An ASL Airlines Belgium Boeing 737-400 freighter, registration OE-IBO performing flight 3V-279P from Helsinki (Finland) to Shannon (Ireland), was climbing out of Helsinki's runway 04R when the crew reported a flight control problem and stopped the climb at FL100. The aircraft returned to Helsinki for an approach to runway 04L and was on final approach when the crew requested to hold for about 10 minutes, climbed back to 5000 feet and entered a hold. The aircraft subsequently positioned for another approach to runway 04L and landed without further incident about 40 minutes after departure.
The aircraft departed again after about 3.5 hours on the ground and reached Shannon with a delay of about 4.5 hours.
