The report and India’s inspection order referred to an advisory from the Federal Aviation Administration in 2018 that recommended that carriers using Boeing models, including the 787, inspect the locking mechanism of the fuel control switches to ensure they could not be moved accidentally.

Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration issues a notification that 787 fuel switches are safe after India's preliminary crash report published.

A cockpit recording of dialogue between the two pilots of the Air India flight that crashed last month supports the view that the captain cut the flow of fuel to the plane's engines, said a source briefed on U.

A focus on the Boeing 787’s fuel switches in a preliminary assessment raised questions about the pilots’ actions, but much is still unknown about Flight 171.

International airlines from South Korea and India are preparing to inspect its Boeing fleets following findings from the Air India crash investigation.

Airlines will have until July 21 to inspect their Boeing 787 Dreamliners and select Boeing 737 models, according to the order.

The crash deals a fresh blow to the beleaguered U.S. plane maker, which has been mired by safety and production issues in recent years.
