"FAA Considers Increased Oversight for United Airlines After Safety Incidents"

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration is reportedly considering measures to restrict United Airlines' growth, including potentially preventing the carrier from adding new routes and barring it from flying paying customers on newly delivered aircraft, following a series of safety incidents. The FAA's safety assurance system is monitoring all aspects of the airline's operation, and U.S. safety regulators will increase scrutiny of United after recent incidents, including a missing panel on an aircraft, a Boeing 737 MAX rolling onto the grass, and a Boeing 777-200 losing a tire after takeoff. United's corporate safety vice president stated that the FAA will be reviewing the airline's work processes, manuals, and facilities in the coming weeks.
