Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways are conducting inspections of their Boeing 787 fleets after faulty wiring was discovered by ANA in an engine fire extinguisher.
JAL opted to turn back an airborne 787 to Tokyo Narita Airport so it could be inspected. It was replaced by another 787 that had already been cleared, and the flight to Helsinki was scheduled to depart after a 7-hr. delay.
