Electrical fault forces another Qantas jet to land
The latest incident was unrelated to the superjumbo drama, but it was the third time Qantas jetliners have aborted flights because of faults since the November 4 explosion on the Airbus A380, which raised concerns about the world’s largest passenger plane.
The Airbus incident has prompted extra attention on Qantas, which prides itself on its safety record. Qantas says the three faults since November 4 were far less serious than problems with the A380 and that the turnarounds were precautionary.
