Boeing 747 Generator Failure Leads to Diversion

On February 8th, 2024, a One Air Boeing 747-400 freighter, registered G-ONEE, experienced a critical electrical failure with two of its four generators failing during ascent from London Heathrow, EN (UK) to Hong Kong (China), causing loss of lateral navigation capabilities.
