Adding to an ever-growing list of Boeing public relations issues, the
aircraft manufacturer has informed the Federal Aviation Administration
that some of its 737 jets may have “improperly manufactured” wing
parts that don’t meet strength and durability standards.

The FAA said Sunday that the issue affects some of the slat tracks in
Boeing’s Next Generation (NG) and Max aircraft, including 32 NG and 33
Max jets in the U.S. The FAA said that the issue may affect as many as
148 parts manufactured by a Boeing supplier, adding that the faulty
parts “may be susceptible to premature failure or cracks.”

“Although a complete failure of a leading edge slat track would not
result in the loss of the aircraft, a risk remains that a failed part
could lead to aircraft damage in flight,” the FAA said.


Why the stockholders have not hanged the
current management from nearest lamp poles is
beyond me. One huge corporate embarrassment
after another and nothing changes at the top.

"We have a fix in the works, trust us".
