"Probe Launched into Boeing 787 Incident: Passengers Injured as Plane Plunges"

A LATAM Airlines flight experienced a sudden drop, causing passengers to hit the ceiling and resulting in injuries to about 50 people, with 12 taken to the hospital. The incident, which occurred during a flight to Auckland, is being investigated by New Zealand’s Transport Accident Investigation Commission, with Chile also participating. This adds to a series of safety incidents involving Boeing planes in recent months, including a door panel blowing out midair, a tire coming off during takeoff, and engine issues on a United Airlines flight.
