#Newsflash: Dreamliner engine shuts down mid-flight
Australian transport authorities are investigating yet another issue with an engine on a Dreamliner aircraft.
A Scoot airlines flight was flying between Singapore and Perth when its right engine shut down unexpectedly.
The incident, which happened on Thursday last week, is the latest in a long series of issues with the Rolls-Royce engines being used on Dreamliners around the world.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau has begun an investigation which will include interviewing crew and analysing engineering reports.
Scoot is a low cost airline owned by a subsidiary company of Singapore Airlines.
It has a total of 48 Boeing Dreamliners in its fleet.
The report is expected to be completed early next year.
