A Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft from the fleet that was grounded after two deadly crashes made an emergency landing in Florida today.

No passengers were aboard Southwest Airlines Flight 8701.

Two pilots aboard the flight reported a performance issue with one of the engines shortly after takeoff.

The global fleet of 737 Max jets was grounded indefinitely on March 13 after two fatal crashes involving the aircraft in March and October.

It is not clear if that emergency landing was related to suspected problems with the aircraft.

An investigation into the crashes focuses on an automated anti‑stall system and not engine problems.
