Agency head says the FAA will significantly increase oversight of Boeing after last week’s cabin blowout incident
The US’s top air transportation regular, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), will significantly increase oversight of Boeing, the agency said on Friday, with the head of the FAA saying they believe there are “other manufacturing problems” at the company.
The FAA will conduct a new audit of the Boeing 737 9 Max production line and its suppliers, the agency said in a statement, after a panel broke off an aircraft while in mid-flight, prompting a dramatic emergency landing on Friday.
