(AP) – The Federal Aviation Administration has ordered inspections of more jet engines like the one that blew apart at 32,000 feet in a deadly accident aboard a Southwest Airlines plane.
The agency says its order affects 352 engines in the U.S. and another 681 worldwide on “new generation” Boeing 737 jets.
The requirement from the agency comes after the engine maker, CFM International, issued a service bulletin recommending that more engines be inspected.
