Dreamliner in another emergency
A Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft operated by All Nippon Airways (ANA) has made an emergency landing at Takamatsu airport after a battery malfunction, the BBC reports.
A spokesperson for ANA said all 129 passengers and eight crew were taken off the plane safely.
US regulators this week ordered a review of the 787 Dreamliner plane after the fifth glitch in five days led to concerns about the safety of Boeing’s revolutionary new aircraft.
ANA Flight NH 692 left Yamaguchi Ube in western Japan at 08:10 local time and was forced to land at 08:47 at Takamatsu airport.
ANA said that there was an error message in the cockpit citing a battery malfunction.
However, it would not confirm or deny reports that there was smoke in the cockpit or in the cabin.
