Boeing to Replace 737 Wing Parts
Boeing to Replace 737 Wing Parts
Boeing has notified operators of the planes
about the needed repairs and is sending replacement parts to help minimize the
time aircraft are out of service.
Boeing has identified 148 parts made by a
subcontractor that are affected. The parts may be on a total of 179 737 Max
aircraft and 133 737 NG planes worldwide accordingly by the FAA.
The 737 Max has been grounded worldwide
since March 13 after two fatal crashes tied to a malfunction that caused a
flight control system to repeatedly drive down the plane’s nose. Boeing is
finalizing a software fix along with proposed new training that will be
required before the planes fly again.
