Emergency services have been called to reports of a defence aircraft in distress circling the Williamtown RAAF Base.
Police say an E-7A Wedgetail with ten crew on board lost cabin pressure at about 12.30pm on Wednesday.
It's understood oxygen masks were deployed and the aircraft circled the RAAF base for about 25 minutes until it was deemed safe to land.
The aircraft touched down just before one o'clock.
It is not clear if any of the crew have been injured.
Police say ambulance paramedics are assessing ten people at the scene.
