The reports about the US aircraft manufacturer's crisis jet continued: An Air Canada Boeing 737-8 MAX had to land at an alternate airport on December 22 due to a defect in one of the engines.

There were no passengers on board, only 3 crew members. Shortly after the start of the 737-Max, the pilots received a warning that the hydraulics on the left engine were too low. Immediately afterwards they were informed that there were also problems with the fuel supply in the left wing. The news portal reports Futurezone. The pilots then decided to turn off the left engine. They released a PAN-PAN radio and headed for the nearest airport in Tucson, Arizona. The plane could land safely there. The incident is now being examined more closely on site and the cause is being investigated.

Two crashes with more than 300 deaths forced the 737 Max to the ground - for 20 months, worldwide. The machine has only been allowed to take off again for a few weeks.
