"Boeing Recommends Global 737 Max Inspections Amid Loose Bolt Concerns"
Boeing has directed airlines to inspect 737 Max jets for a potential loose bolt in the rudder control system after an international operator found a bolt with a missing nut during routine maintenance. The FAA is monitoring the situation and may take further action depending on the findings. No in-flight incidents have been reported due to this issue, and U.S. carriers do not anticipate operational impacts from the inspections. This precautionary measure follows the 737 Max's 20-month grounding after two fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019.
