No impact on Air India as Boeing asks airlines to ground its 777s
The Hindu
Boeing has asked all airlines to ground their Boeing 777s with Pratt & Whitney 4000-112 engines until U.S. Federal Aviation Administration gives further orders. The FAA had on Saturday issued orders for grounding of such planes following an engine failure of an United Airlines aircraft.
“Boeing is actively monitoring recent events related to United Airlines Flight 328. While the NTSB investigation is ongoing, we recommended suspending operations of the 69 in-service and 59 in-storage 777s powered by Pratt & Whitney 4000-112 engines until the FAA identifies the appropriate inspection protocol,” Boeing said in a statement.

The U.S. has launched two investigations under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 against India and other economies to examine practices that may be ‘unreasonable or discriminatory and burden or restrict U.S. commerce’. One probe examines whether countries, including India, are using excess manufacturing capacity to export to the U.S. in a manner that hurts American businesses, while another looks at whether countries have taken ‘sufficient steps’ to prohibit imports of goods produced with forced labour.
