Title: LAN800 Apparant Technical Issue Causes Significant In Flight Movement
Post by: RonR on March 11, 2024, 08:35:02 AM

At least 50 passengers were injured on Latam flight 800 (LAN800 - a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner) when the aircraft "dipped so dramatically...for a couple of seconds" that passengers that didn't have seat belts on were tossed around the cabin.  The flight was enroute from Syndey Australia to Auckland New Zealand when the incident occurred.  The flight continued to Auckland where it was met by numerous emergency vehicles.
