Safety bureau investigates incident on Qantas flight

The Australian Transportation Safety Bureau is investigating an incident on a Qantas flight from Melbourne to Sydney last Sunday.

A Qantas spokeswoman says halfway through flight QF472 the lights in the cabin went out, and the emergency strip lighting in the floor came on.

Just over a minute later the lights came back on.

Qantas says the fault was in a control panel and a part was replaced when the plane landed in Sydney. Link to story:
