Dreamliners to remain grounded until safe to fly
- USA: Monday, February 04 - 2013 at 05:14
US transportation secretary Ray LaHood has said aviation regulators aren't pressing to get Boeing's 787 back into the air and won't let the grounded Dreamliner jet resume flights until they know it's safe, Bloomberg has reported. All 50 Dreamliners in service around the world have been grounded since January 16 after an All Nippon Airways (ANA) 787 made an emergency landing because one of its lithium-ion batteries smoked and became charred. Until regulators are satisfied with the jet's safety, none of the 787s will be allowed into the air, LaHood said. "We will continue to look at the entire plane with a focus on the batteries," he said. "People expect us to get this right. They don't want to fly in planes when there are issues."
