What FAA Will Require Before MAX Can Return…

by AllAviation infoAviation Safety

The FAA’s proposed steps for operators to clear Boeing 737 MAXs for service include separating wire bundles deemed to be noncompliant with regulations and conducting “readiness” flights to ensure the long-grounded aircraft are airworthy, a draft notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) made public

The wire-bundle issue, discovered during regulators’ comprehensive review of the MAX’s design and certification, concerns horizontal stabilizer trim arm and control wiring that runs the length of the aircraft. The FAA found that the wiring needs to be separated in 12 places to meet 2007 regulatory changes put in place to prevent wiring failures from creating hazards.  Read full article on Aviation week Network

The FAA isn’t Mandating Temperature Checks And COVID-19 Testing – But why?

by AllAviation infoTravel

Why isn’t the FAA mandating temperature checks of everyone who enters an airport? Why not also mandate that airlines provide COVID-19 tests of all employees who come into contact with passengers? This would make the traveling public feel better about flying.

Here is the answer by: Karen Walker Air Transport World Editor-in-Chief :

Then there are cost and liability issues. If the FAA had to add staff to every airport to conduct health/temperature screenings, that plus the cost of thermometers would require funding. And in litigious America, people who are denied entry might sue the government for their missed flights.
The issue of wearing masks is complicated because individual airlines are mandating the wearing of masks, in some cases without explicit government support. As more states require that masks be worn inside public buildings, rules may vary from airport to airport. Again, consistency is needed.
COVID-19 testing of aviation employees is taking place, though it differs from airline to airline. In the U.S., there are still problems with accessibility to testing for non urgent cases, and in many cases, test results do not come back for days, making them useless for crew members. Regular COVID-19 testing for airline employees would be viable only if easily available at every airport were quick and simple inexpensive tests (ideally with a mouth swab) with fast results. None of those conditions exist right now… Read full article on aviation week network
