Qantas Grounds Second Boeing 737 in a Week Over Maintenance Issue
Qantas has grounded a second Boeing 737 aircraft within a week following the discovery of a potential maintenance issue. The problem was identified by engineers during a routine inspection in Sydney after the aircraft completed a flight from Auckland. The airline stressed that this was not an in-flight incident and was found while the plane was on the ground. This event follows a separate incident just days prior, where another Qantas 737 had to turn back mid-flight due to an engine issue. Qantas is now working with Boeing to resolve the latest problem amid increased scrutiny of the manufacturer.
