Boeing expands search for defects on newly built 787 Dreamliner planes

Boeing Co. has widened its inspections of newly built 787 Dreamliner planes to hunt for additional manufacturing defects that could prematurely age the jets’ carbon-fiber frames. While US regulators say the faults don’t pose an immediate hazard, the emergence of another flaw in Boeing’s most advanced jetliner is slowing deliveries and raising doubts about quality controls. The company didn’t deliver any 787 jets in November, Chief Financial Officer Greg Smith said earlier this month, citing inspections that took longer than expected. The latest issue involves tiny variances, or wrinkles, in the interior lining where composite fuselage barrels are linked to create the Dreamliner’s structure.

Boeing performing additional checks on 787 Dreamliner fuselages

Boeing Co quality inspections related to previously disclosed production flaws in its 787 Dreamliner found the same issue in other parts of the jet, the company said on Monday. Boeing said earlier this month that inspections for 787 production flaws were taking longer than expected, hampering the United States plane manufacturer’s ability to deliver jets to customers through December. On Monday, Boeing added that inspections of assembled 787 aircraft found that some areas where fuselage segments are joined were potentially not as smooth as required. The engineering specifications at issue are roughly equivalent to the width of a human hair, the company noted.
