The aircraft remained on the ground for about 75 minutes, departed again and stopped the climb at FL190 when the rudder ratio indication re-occurred. The aircraft again returned to Vienna for a safe overweight landing on runway 34 about 35 minutes after second departure.
The rotation was subsequently cancelled.
The airline reported the aircraft returned after a fault message occurred. After a technical review the aircraft was again released for the flight, but needed to return again when the fault message re-occurred. The passengers on both flights to and from Montreal were rebooked onto other flights.
