    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 5751
    Reading Time:about 13 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that would require certain Boeing 737 models to replace passenger service unit (PSU)-mounted video monitors that lack secondary retention lanyards. This action is in response to reports of these monitors detaching during hard landings, which could pose a risk to passenger safety in emergencies. The FAA is requesting public comments on this proposal by March 3, 2025, to ensure the safety concerns are appropriately addressed in the fleet. The rule aims to prevent potential injuries by ensuring the monitors are securely attached.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure video screens inside some Boeing airplanes stay securely attached, so they're asking for new rules to add extra straps to these screens to keep everyone safe during bumpy landings. They’re inviting people to share their thoughts on this idea by March 2025.
