JAL took one of 787s out of service due to battery-related problem
Original story by jiji.com (via Yahoo!) in Japanese: http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20...00061-jij-soci

Basically there's some pressure built up in the battery container. JAL later found out a tape used for the battery repair was left behind and that seems to be the cause. JL021 from HND-PEK was delayed and switched to 763 as a result.

So last time Boeing workers didn't tighten the nut on NH's 787. And presumably the repair is done by Boeing workers on this 787 too. So what's next?
