An emergency order has been issued for checks of a control mechanism on more than 800 new-model Boeing 737s following reports of problems by three operators.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued an emergency airworthiness directive Tuesday, giving airlines 10 days to inspect the jam nut on the backup elevator tab assembly on the tail of the plane and make repairs as needed.
20 April 2012; Bhoja Airlines; 737-200; AP-BKC; flight B4 213; Islamabad, Pakistan: The aircraft was on a scheduled domestic flight Karachi to Islamabad, Pakistan, and crashed in a residential area near the airport.

Känns det inte aningen enahanda?
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 737-200, -200C, -300, -400, and -500 series airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of cracks in the skin and surrounding structure under the number 3 very high frequency (VHF) antenna on the lower external surface of the airplane at buttock line 0.0, aft of the main landing gear wheel well. This AD requires inspecting for cracking and corrosion under the number 3 VHF antenna, and corrective actions if necessary; and, for certain airplanes, replacing bonded skin panels with solid skin panels if not previously accomplished. This AD also provides an optional preventive modification (which would terminate the inspection requirements for certain airplanes). We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracks and corrosion of the skin and surrounding structure under the number 3 VHF antenna, which could result in separation of the antenna from the airplane, and rapid depressurization of the airplane.
In a motion submitted as part of a protracted lawsuit in Kansas involving allegations of flawed work on the 737 production line,
Boeing had stated that the NG fuselage was considered “existing” and “unchanged” from the Classic.
Maskinen är i huvudsak en 60-talskonstruktion och byggs fortfarande i stora serier (till bl a Norwegian) med vissa modifieringar.
737NG är ingen gammal konstruktion dock.
Boeing 737NG är den vanligaste flygplanstypen worldwide. I relation till hur många flygplan av denna typ som är i trafik (landar och lyfter var femte minut) runt om i världen så är incidenterna så gott som obefintliga. En gammal konstruktion som är trygg och säker. Finns ingen anledning att i frågasätta säkerheten av detta flygplan.
DC 9 MD 80 Har inte de problem som Boeing har.
Cabin environment features on current Boeing production aircraft include:
Ozone converters for outside air are optional equipment on the Boeing 737 Passenger aircraft. Ozone concentrations in the atmosphere vary with altitude, latitude, and season. Thus, the need for ozone converters is dependent on the time of year and routes the aircraft will operate.

Vad tyst det blivit från alla Boeing kramare!
Boeing har nog spruckit för mycket.
The aviation giant Boeing admitted today that it was aware of weaknesses in its 737 jets, but it never expected a 15-year-old Southwest Airlines jet to crack open in mid-flight.

Vem vågar lita på Boeing?
Detta fruktansvärt inte undra på att de också har problem med B787.
