F-35B grounded for now

A failure in a fuel line that caused an aborted takeoff last week has resulted in the grounding of the Marine Corps F-35B. Flights are suspended pending completion of an engineering investigation. The aborted takeoff was at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla., home of the F-35 training center. The grounding does not affect the Air Force and Navy variants.
