Both these sub-suppliers are under investigation, said the prosecutors from the southeastern city of Brindisi who ordered the seizure.<\/p>\n<p>The administrator for Processi Speciali declined to comment. The court-appointed administrator for MPS was not immediately available for comment.<\/p>\n<p>Eight unnamed individuals are also under investigation for fraud and for actions threatening the safety of air transport.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecutors said in a statement their investigations suggested the parts &quot;were produced using titanium and aluminum of different quality and origin from those prescribed by the customer and in breach of the relevant technical specifications&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecutors said the parts were intended &quot;for the production of sections 44 and 46 of the Boeing 787 fuselages&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>Leonardo, which filed a lawsuit on Dec. 7, is the injured party in the criminal and administrative investigations, the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>Leonardo declined to comment.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for Boeing in Italy declined to comment.<\/p>\n<p>In October Boeing said that some 787 Dreamliner parts supplied by MPS were improperly manufactured over the past three years.<\/p>\n<p>At that time, the U.S. aircraft manufacturer said the quality issue did not affect the immediate safety of flights, adding it had notified the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).<\/p>\n<p>Undelivered planes will be reworked, and planes already carrying passengers will go through a review process with Boeing and receive FAA confirmation, Boeing said.<\/p>\n<p>In November three sources told Reuters that prosecutors in southern Italy had opened an investigation into the supply of parts to Boeing by MPS.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/12\/19\/italian-prosecutors-seize-parts-for-boeing-787-aircraft.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Italian prosecutors on Saturday ordered the seizure of components intended for the production of Boeing 787 aircraft that they said failed to meet the technical [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":124179,"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 -
