Boeing recommends airlines to inspect 737 MAX airplanes for possible loose hardware
New Delhi: Boeing has recommended airlines to conduct an inspection of their B737 Max fleet, after an international operator discovered a bolt with a missing nut while performing routine maintenance.
In a statement on Friday, Boeing said the issue identified on the particular airplane has been remedied.
In India three airlines — Akasa Air, SpiceJet and Air India Express — have B737 Max planes in their fleet.
Earlier on Thursday, the US aviation regulator, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a statement, saying it was closely monitoring ‘targetted inspection,’ of Boeing 737 Max planes for a possible loose bolt in the rudder control system.
