By GlobalDataLast week, Boeing was reportedly testing the flight-deck windows of several 787 Dreamliners to ensure that they meet requirements.
In a separate development, the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) revealed last week that it will handle final pre-delivery checks on four 787 jets independently.
Bloomberg quoted an FAA email as saying: “The FAA’s top priority is ensuring the safety of the travelling public.
“Today, the FAA issued a certificate of airworthiness for two of the four Boeing 787s for which the agency retained that authority. The FAA acted after thorough inspections confirmed the aircraft complied with all airworthiness standards.”
