Reading Time:about 13 minutes
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new rule that would affect Boeing 757-200, -200CB, and -300 airplanes. This proposed rule is a response to newly reported cracking in parts of the airplane's structure, which could compromise its safety. To prevent potential safety risks, the rule would require inspections and repairs of these cracks at specific locations on the airplanes. The FAA is seeking public comments on this proposal until March 17, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to make sure some airplanes are safe, so they're telling people to check and fix any cracks they find on certain Boeing planes. They are asking for people's thoughts on this idea until March 17, 2025.
