JAL has accelerated the retirement of its Boeing 777s by a year.

The interim order by U.S. authorities to inspect all Pratt & Whitney PW4000-112s applies to some 125 Boeing 777s.

NTSB chairman Robert Sumwalt said that a fan blade from the PW4000 that failed in-flight on February 20 showed so-called "beach" marks.

An inflight engine failure suffered by a cargo 747-400 involved a smaller version of the PW4000 that failed over Colorado on February 20.

Authorities expect to find no survivors from the Boeing 737-500 that crashed into the Java Sea Saturday.

Pilots can now undergo upset training in a 737-800 simulator at SimAero's Paris training center.

The commercial airplane manufacturer posted a $466 million net loss in the third quarter of 2020.

Despite predicting a record net loss in FY2020, Japan-based All Nippon Airways plans to create a new low-cost widebody unit for medium-distance flights.

Job cuts at Boeing will exceed 19,000 people as the company readies for a second round of voluntary layoffs.

Boeing 747-400 registration G-CIVD departs London Heathrow for the last time on Tuesday.
