* Carrier aims to bring grounded plane back next week 
 
 * Second jet to have precautionary checks 
 
 * Lessor ILFC urges Boeing to halt 787 glitches 
 
 OSLO, Oct 9 (Reuters) - Budget airline Norwegian Air Shuttle plans to take its second Boeing Dreamliner out of operation for precautionary checks after repeated hydraulic and electrical faults led to the grounding of its other one. 
 
 The carrier said on Wednesday the second Dreamliner had had fewer problems than the other plane and the move was more a precautionary measure. It expects the checks to take place once the grounded jet is back in service, probably late next week. 
 
 The move came as one of Boeing's largest customers, which owns the two jets and rents them to Norwegian for a fee, threw its weight behind the airline in a row over 787 reliability. 
 
 "It's got to improve: it can't keep doing what it has been doing and it has been very frustrating," Henri Courpron, chief executive of Los Angeles-based International Lease Finance Corp , told Reuters during an aviation event in Barcelona. 
 
 "Norwegian have launched their wide-body operation on the back of the 787 order and it is very difficult for an airline to start a new product in a new market if the airplane is not as reliable as you would like." 
 
 The Dreamliner was supposed to be a game changer for the aviation industry as its light weight body and sophisticated engines cut fuel consumption by 20 percent. 
 
 But it has been beset by problems, including a battery fire that grounded the model for months this year and forced Boeing to come up with a new battery design. 
 
 Norwegian Air grounded one of its two Dreamliners on Sept. 28, asking Boeing for repairs after repeated faults in its first month of operation left passengers stranded in cities around the world including Bangkok and New York. 
 
 "Boeing has gone through the plane completely and made all the necessary improvements," spokeswoman Charlotte Holmbergh Jacobsson said of the grounded plane. "We aim to have it back in operation towards the end of next week." 
 
 Contrary to previous plans to test the plane on shorter routes, Norwegian Air will put the repaired jet immediately into long-haul service, she said. 
 
 Boeing said it expected checks on the second plane would take several days. 
 
 The Dreamliners are central to Norwegian Air's plans to ramp up its long haul operations to Asia and North America. It expects to have another six of the planes by 2015.

 A Boeing 787 Dreamliner headed from San Diego to Tokyo was diverted back to the San Diego International Airport Wednesday due to a problem with the airplane's anti/de-icing system. 
 
 According to San Diego Airport Authority officials, Japan Airlines Flight 65 took off from Lindbergh Field at 1:35 p.m. with no issues. A short time later, the flight turned around and returned to San Diego, landing at Terminal 2 by 3:10 p.m. 
 
 Diverted Dreamliner Causes SD Delay

 Representatives from Japan Airlines told NBC 7 San Diego that the pilot of the flight had received an “error” message regarding the operation of the anti/de-icing system. The pilot made the call to turn around and return to San Diego so repairs could be made to the system. 
 
 As of 5:15 p.m., airline officials said the repairs were expected to take a few hours. 
 
 NBC 7 spoke with one passenger who decided to deplane rather than wait out the repairs process. The passenger said about 10 people got off the plane, but the rest of the passengers waited on board. 
 
 San Diego Airport officials did say the plan was to have the flight take off again sometime Wednesday evening. The JAL flight is a weekly flight to Tokyo's Narita Airport from San Diego. 
 
 Dreamliner Grounded in U.S. for Safety Reasons 
 
 The U.S. and several countries around the world have stopped flying Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner because of an increase risk of fires. NBC 7's Brandi Powell reports on the airliner that was built with help from several San Diego companies. (Published Thursday, Jan. 17, 2013) 
 
 NBC 7 reached out to the FAA regarding the incident, but officials have not yet commented. The FAA’s primary public information officer is currently out of the office due to the government shutdown. 
 
 The 787 Dreamliner, Boeing’s newest and most technologically-advanced jet has been plagued by a series of problems since its launch, including a battery fire and fuel leaks. 
 
 Japan Airlines and Japan’s ANA are major customers for the jet, and among the first to fly it. 
 
 Back in January, the airlines grounded their Boeing 787 aircraft for safety checks after one was forced to make an emergency landing when a cockpit message showed battery problems and a burning smell was detected on board. 
 
 In March, a Boeing 787 with a redesigned battery system made a test flight, and the company said the event went well and "according to plan." 
 
 In late August, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner on its way to San Diego from Tokyo had to turn around and return to Japan due to maintenance issues stemming from a problem with the slat system. That particular incident caused some delays at Lindbergh Field. 

 Two of Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner planes flown by Japan Airlines have turned back with technical problems in the space of 24 hours. 
 
 JAL was forced to turn around its Tokyo-bound flight from Moscow on Thursday due to a problem in the jet's toilet system, a spokesman for the carrier said. 
 
 The flight, carrying 141 passengers, departed Moscow on Wednesday evening and returned after about five hours, he said. It is a 10-hour flight between the two cities. 
 
 JAL spokesman Takuya Shimoguchi said the toilet malfunction on the flight from Moscow was most likely caused by an electronic glitch and the plane was being repaired. 
 
 
 
 Separately, a Dreamliner headed to Tokyo was diverted back to San Diego because of a possible problem with its deicing system. 
 
 The flight left Lindbergh Field shortly after 1.30pm local time on Wednesday but turned around and landed back in San Diego by 3.10pm, local news reports said. 
 
 Airline officials said the pilot received an error message for the deicing system and decided to go back to San Diego for repairs. 
 
 The incidents follow a spate of problems since the Dreamliner's first flight in December 2009, including overheating batteries that forced the grounding worldwide of the fleet for three months this year. Boeing redesigned the battery systems to the satisfaction of US aviation regulators. 
 
 JAL made headlines this week by signing with Boeing rival Airbus for its next generation of long-haul jets. 
 
 The Australian airline Jetstar took delivery of the country's first Dreamliner on Wednesday.
– Yet another set of problems has emerged for Boeing's 787 Dreamliner, forcing two Japan Airlines flights to turn around just days after the airline announced a switch to Airbus. On a flight from San Diego to Tokyo, one of two anti-ice systems stopped working, the BBC reports, sending the plane back within hours, NBC 7 notes. And on a flight from Moscow, the toilets wouldn't flush "and the device to heat meals also had a problem," a JAL spokesman tells AFP. He said the problem was electrical, though unrelated to the plane's much-maligned batteries. The second plane returned five hours after takeoff, the Guardian reports. In further bad news, Norwegian Air Shuttle is set to ground a second Dreamliner as a precaution; the budget airline's first 787 had a series of electrical and hydraulic problems, Reuters reports. The jet has "got to improve: it can't keep doing what it has been doing and it has been very frustrating," says a leading Boeing customer, who rents the planes to Norwegian Air Shuttle.
