Fuel leak blights another Dreamliner
A fuel leak on a Boeing 787 Dreamliner has forced Japan Airlines to cancel its take-off only a day after a fire was reported on board another of Boeing’s new aircraft.
The plane, bound for Tokyo, had left the gate at Boston’s Logan aiport with passengers on board when about 40 gallons of spilled fuel were found, reports the BBC.
Passengers got off safely and no-one was hurt, an airport spokesman said.
Earlier this week an electrical fire broke out at the same airport on board another Dreamliner operated by Japan Airlines, see previous story.
A spokeswoman for Japan Airlines, Carol Anderson, said on Tuesday that the second Dreamliner had returned to the gate because of mechanical issues and details were not yet confirmed, Reuters reported.
