Regulator Insists on Presence at Seattle Testing
Indian air safety officials plan to travel to Seattle to observe Boeing’s testing of a fuel-control switch panel that was removed from an Air India 787 in February after the pilots on a London-Bengaluru flight flagged a possible defect. The testing, described by Indian officials as sensitive, renews the spotlight on the switches on Boeing Dreamliners that regulate the flow of jet fuel into a plane’s engines. This was first reported by Reuters.
