A QANTAS flight has been evacuated on landing at Perth Airport after crew and passengers smelled fumes in sections of the aircraft.

Fumes in the cockpit or cabin, caused by a hydraulic issue, sparked the evacuation after the plane landed safely at 11.36am.

Qantas has confirmed 97 passengers and five crew were evacuated safely from the aircraft, a Fokker 100, via its emergency slides.

The flight, QantasLink QF1623, was flying to Perth from Newman, in WA’s Pilbara.
