FAA Issues Emergency Directive Warning of Possible Boeing 737 Engine Failures
The Federal Aviation Administration has issued an emergency airworthiness directive covering Boeing (NYSE: BA) 737 aircraft currently in storage, a fresh blow to Boeing's already troubled 737 model.
The FAA said the directive was prompted by four recent reports of single-engine shutdowns due to valves being stuck open. The regulator believes corrosion is the likely cause, and requires inspections of valves on planes not operated for seven or more consecutive days.
