“While this issue may delay some 737 deliveries in the short term, it is our only option given our commitment to delivering perfect aircraft every time,” the statement said. Supplier Spirit AeroSystems is said to have discovered two incorrectly drilled holes in some fuselages.
Boeing has been going through a difficult period for some time, with several production problems with the 737. After an incident during a flight with a Boeing 737 MAX 9 on January 5, the US aviation regulator (FAA) opened an investigation into the manufacturer’s quality control.
Boeing also appointed an independent expert to investigate its internal processes and subcontractors.
