Newtalk新聞 因為加了中國的油而被迫停飛！根據韓媒報導，南韓濟州航空1架客機上個月在蒙古國作業時，未按照標準程序，誤加了專門提供給中國飛機使用的燃油，導致航班被迫停飛，旅客只能換乘後續提供的替代班機。對此，南韓交通部指出，若有往返中國或蒙古的航班，務必注意不要加到未經批准的航空燃油。 根據韓媒《YTN》報導，濟州航空的波音客機準備從蒙古首都烏蘭巴托飛回仁川時，因加錯油，使用了專門提供給中國飛機使用的燃油，過了14分鐘才發現加錯，導致航班被迫停飛，旅客只能換乘後續提供的替代班機。 其維修技師聯繫波音公司，因擔心油料可能含有未經客機製造商批准的添加劑，得知最好不要讓飛機起飛，最終決定將先前所加的燃油全部排出。 報導指出，有旅客透露，就他們所知該架客機要加的是JET A-1航空煤油，卻被加成中國飛機使用的燃油。 對此，南韓交通部展開調查後發現，濟州航空在加油時沒有依照標準程序作業，才會導致加錯油的情況發生。因此交通部提醒，南韓各大航空公司，若有往返中國或蒙古的航班，務必注意不要加到未經批准的航空燃油，並且鼓勵業者在南韓起飛時「滿油出發」，以避免須在中國或蒙古當地加油的情況。延伸閱讀：強颱薔琵＋東北季風交互作用！迎風面雨勢擴大 降雨熱區一圖看薔琵颱風會登陸嗎？歐洲估74％、AI僅5.9％ 專家統整1151條路徑給答案中華電信工會最新罷工進度 工會理事長：2分會已通過、不會在年底前罷工當選後辦「市長，我不想幹了」 沈伯洋：教師、公務員、社工都是目標沈富雄驚喊「蔣萬安可能落選」！形容選情如夕陽 網友反串：蔣寶，我累了
