Boeing gets FAA clearance to restart Dreamliner deliveries
The Federal Aviation Administration has reportedly cleared Boeing to restart deliveries of its large model 787 Dreamliner.
Several production issues since 2020 forced the curtailing of new aircrafts deliveries.
They included small gaps found between fuselage panels which led to inspections.
There were also issues with titanium parts due to the use of materials not meeting FAA standards.
Boeing had to formulate a process for validating fixes before deliveries can restart.
That has seemingly got the FAA for green light.
“We will continue to work transparently with the FAA and our customers towards resuming 787 deliveries, ”Boeing said.
The plane maker has continually said none of the issues were major safety concerns.
Boeing has a backlog of about 120 787s which are waiting to be delivered.
Each jetliner will need to be signed off by the FAA before airlines can take delivery.
