"Boeing Alerts Airlines to Cockpit Mistake After LATAM Air Flight Plunge"
The Wall Street Journal reports that a terrifying plunge on a Latam Airlines Boeing 787 Dreamliner flight may have been caused by a mistake in the cockpit, not a flaw in the Boeing jet, with a flight attendant possibly hitting a switch on the pilot’s seat while serving a meal. Boeing has issued advisories to airlines regarding cockpit seat switches, and American Airlines has warned its pilots about potential hazards. The FAA is investigating, and Boeing is facing renewed scrutiny over safety and quality issues. The incident has raised concerns about the safety of Boeing commercial jets, as the company faces multiple investigations and potential legal liability.
