Alert comes after NTSB says foreign airlines could be using planes with rudder components that could pose safety risks

Last week, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said more than 40 foreign operators of Boeing 737 airplanes may be using Max or 737 Next Generation planes with rudder components that could pose safety risks.
