Another 737 problem

[one love]

A British Boeing 737 packed with 144 holidaymakers heading to Leeds has been forced to make an emergency landing.
The British owned Astraeus plane was carrying passengers from Menorca when the pilot requested the landing at Brest-Guipavas airport in France.

A spokesman for Leeds Bradford Airport said the request was made after an alarm in the cockpit alerted the pilot to a potential loss of cabin pressure

This comes days after a Cypriot airliner crashed in Greece with rumored similar problems. This can't be too good for Boeing who is having major competition put out by the latest Airbus, A-380. With expanding markets in the Middle East, Far East and South America, Boeing needs to find why this problem seems to be a habit at any rate and fix it before it loses millions.

Agreed, but it this past month (or has it already been more than a month...I don't remember) hasn't been great for Airbus either, being as their 340 went down in TO.
