The plane has continued to face careful scrutiny since it resumed flights.<\/p>\n<p>Southwest Airlines removed 30 MAX airplanes from its schedule Friday, while American Airlines removed 17 of its 41 MAX airplanes and United Airlines removed 16 of its 30 MAX airplanes.<\/p>\n<p>Boeing said in a statement that it wants 16 MAX operators to check and verify that &quot;a sufficient ground path exists for a component of the electrical power system&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>American Airlines Chief Operating Officer David Seymour said in a memo to employees seen by Reuters that Boeing &quot;has traced the issue to a production change made in the installation process that occurred after our last aircraft was delivered before the fleet grounding in March 2019.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Airlines said they did not have an immediate timetable for when the planes could return to service. American said the issue impacts 17 of its most recently delivered airplanes.<\/p>\n<p>A Boeing spokeswoman said the issue was not related to a key safety system tied to both fatal crashes called MCAS, which had led to the wider safety grounding.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We are also informing our customers of specific tail numbers affected, and we will provide direction on appropriate corrective actions,&quot; Boeing said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Southwest Airlines said 30 of its 58 737 MAX 8 aircraft were affected by Boeing&#x27;s notification, but that it is currently only flying up to 15 MAX airplanes per day.<\/p>\n<p>Teal Group analyst Richard Aboulafia said it was not clear how big an impact the issue will have.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;If it&#x27;s a glitch that&#x27;s either just a false alarm or something easily checked in a day or so, it will be forgotten quickly,&quot; he said in an email.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;But since it&#x27;s just a batch of planes, and not all MAXs, it&#x27;s probably not related to the design.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/04\/09\/boeing-asks-customers-to-address-potential-electrical-problem-in-some-737-max-jets.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. airlines temporarily grounded more than 60 Boeing 737 MAX jets on Friday after the U.S. planemaker asked 16 carriers who operate the jet to [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":111703,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
