FAA mandates inspections of 2,600 Boeing 737s over critical oxygen mask concerns.

Sharing is Caring!

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has ordered inspections of 2,600 Boeing 737 airplanes due to concerns related to passenger oxygen masks. Specifically, there have been multiple reports of passenger service unit oxygen generators shifting out of position. This issue could potentially result in an inability to provide supplemental oxygen to passengers during a depressurization event. Boeing issued a bulletin to airlines on June 17, calling for visual inspections.
