Boeing is no longer allowed to deliver Dreamliners for the time being
US aircraft manufacturer Boeing has to suspend deliveries of its important long-haul jet 787 "Dreamliner" again. The US aviation authority FAA announced this yesterday, confirming a report in the Wall Street Journal. The reason is additional investigations into a component of the aircraft fuselage. Deliveries will not continue until the FAA is convinced of a satisfactory solution to the problem, the authority said. Boeing did not initially respond. Investors reacted nervously and initially caused the shares of the Airbus rival to fall by almost three percent in after-hours trading in the US. The "Dreamliner" has repeatedly caused problems in recent years. Due to various production defects, the aircraft was not allowed to be handed over to customers from May 2021 to August 2022. At the last re-approval, the FAA announced that in future it would check each 787 individually before certifying its airworthiness.
