Qatar Airways has taken one of its Boeing 787 Dreamliners out of service following a ‘minor’ issue in the latest problem to hit the aircraft.
The plane was grounded after smoke was seen near an electrical panel on the aircraft, reports Reuters.
Qatar Airways said no flights were cancelled as a result but that Qatar Airways was resolving the issue.
Indian aviation regulators are also investigating an oven which overheated and caused smoke in an Air India Dreamliner this week.
It is the latest in a series of incidents to hit the Boeing aircraft since it came back into service in May, following a four-month grounding over battery problems.
A Japan Airlines Dreamliner was forced to return to Boston airport earlier this month as a "precautionary measure" after a mechanical indicator alert came on mid flight.
Days earlier an Ethiopian Airlines 787 caught fire while parked at London Heathrow and Thomson was forced to turn back one of its 787s traveling from Manchester to Orlando after experiencing a mid-flight technical issue, see previous story.
