    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule requiring new safety inspections for MHI RJ Aviation ULC Model CL-600-2B19 airplanes, due to ultrasonic inspections potentially missing cracks in certain areas. The rule, effective March 17, 2025, mandates repeated ultrasonic inspections and repairs for cracking in specific structural parts. These measures aim to prevent structural failures stemming from undetected cracks. The rule incorporates standards from a related Transport Canada directive and requires using updated inspection procedures.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA says there are some airplanes that need special checks to make sure they don't have cracks that could lead to bigger problems, like pieces breaking. They want these checks done regularly and in a specific way to keep everything safe.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule concerning The Boeing Company Model 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10 airplanes. This rule arises from concerns that some No. 1 flight compartment windows might not withstand bird impacts as required. The rule mandates the replacement of these windows and prevents the installation of windows that don't meet the safety design standards. This measure is intended to address potential safety hazards that could lead to injuries and affect the safe flight and landing of these aircraft. The rule will take effect on March 11, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    Imagine a rule that says some airplane windows might not be strong enough if a bird hits them. So, airplane makers need to swap out these windows to make sure everyone stays safe while flying.
