An Air India Boeing 787, the same kind of plane that crashed 4 days earlier, was forced to turn around after a midair "technical issue," the airline says.

Air India Boeing 787 flight to London was canceled just days after the crash on June 12 that took the lives of over 290 people. Air India said the cancellation was due to "unavailability of the aircraft.

India's aviation regulator has confirmed that Air India's Boeing 787 fleet meets safety standards after a tragic crash resulting in 271 fatalities. The recent surveillance showed no major safety concerns with the aircraft or its maintenance systems,

An Air India crash Thursday involved a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, which the aircraft manufacturer first delivered 14 years ago.

In response to heightened safety concerns, DGCA confirmed that comprehensive surveillance of Air India’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet revealed no significant safety deviations.

It’s also the latest disaster to hit the beleaguered American aerospace giant — which has been dogged by a door that blew off a 737 jet, a leaky spacecraft that stranded astronauts on the International Space Station for months, as well as politically damaging delays in outfitting the new Air Force One jets.

Air India and Boeing are in the midst of significant turnarounds, but knowing the cause of the crash of Flight 171 will take a lengthy investigation.
