FAA sees no immediate safety issue for Boeing 787s in service
The FAA said Tuesday it agrees with Boeing’s assessment that a new production issue on the 787 Dreamliner does not pose an immediate safety issue for aircraft already in service. Boeing said it discovered improper shimming bracket on the horizontal stabilizer of the 787. The FAA said it “will ensure that Boeing takes the appropriate steps to address the situation. The agency will issue no new airworthiness certificates for the 787 until the matter is addressed to its satisfaction.” <br/>
