Federal aviation safety officials have ordered more than 2,600 Boeing 737 series airplanes to undergo inspections because of a potential issue with devices that could cause passenger oxygen masks to not work properly when deployed in an emergency.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) confirmed that the agency has issued an “airworthiness directive,” a legally enforceable order, requiring operators of certain Boeing 737 planes to inspect passenger service unit oxygen generators to ensure that the devices are in their proper position, a spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement.
