Boeing urges US regulator to allow 787 to return to service
- USA: Saturday, March 30 - 2013 at 02:12
Jim McNerney, Boeing Co's chief executive has urged US regulators reviewing battery problems on the grounded 787 passenger jet to allow the aircraft back into service, saying he was confident the redesigned battery was safe, Reuters has reported. McNerney did not specify when he expected the jet to be flying customers again other than saying "sooner rather than later." Regulators worldwide banned flight of the 787 after lithium-ion batteries overheated on two of the aircraft in January. The grounding is costing Boeing an estimated $50m a week in lost income and compensation payments to airlines.
