The American wide-body jet airliner Boeing 787 Dreamliner<\/strong> attracted the attention of aviation authorities, who are worried that the aircraft may be in danger of exploding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The US-based Federal Aviation Administration<\/strong> stated on Friday that planes should consider replacing tap parts and that leaks that were discovered on them should be regularly and timely inspected.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

This was in response to reports of laboratory water entering the aircraft’s equipment, <\/strong>particularly its electronic components, through the cabin floor and into the cabin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FAA raised concerns about a leak, which could damage critical equipment and result in a “loss of continued safe flight and landing<\/strong>.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

According to the regulatory agency, one of the airlines discovered a wet carpet in the cockpit, and after an inspection of their fleet, the airline discovered \"multiple\" Boeing 787 planes had a similar issue.<\/strong><\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Boeing notified airlines about the problem in November, tracing it to an O-rin seal and describing it as a slow leak. The leak was estimated to be 8 ounces of water per hour, and Boeing Company stated that the issue was limited to specific 787s.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the FAA’s proposal to inspect and issue other orders would apply to all Boeing 787s. <\/p>
The additional inspections were described by the FAA as a temporary measure while the manufacturer redesigns the tap modules.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
There will also be a 45-day comment period<\/strong> before the FAA proposal becomes a final order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inspections would cover 140 aircraft in the US fleet. Boeing refers to the 787 as the Dreamliner.<\/strong> It is a larger plane than the 737 Max and is used for long-distance flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, the FAA halted production of the 787 and ordered an inspection of Boeing’s manufacturing and quality control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
