Should the Finnish passengers be worried about Boeing 737 model by planes while flying?

– structural damage, finding that the system works. For this reason, all machines, with more than 30 000 flights behind him, has to be checked.

– Process has progressed at a pace, and those machines have been put to flight ban, which damage has been found. Maintenance programs which the machines will be checked, must continue to refine. The system works. I would personally terribly worried and I am prepared to travel to 737 of tomorrow.

Just today the australian airline Qantas told, however, that the less used of the plane was found a fracture. Does this tell us, that boeing’s problems are much wider?

Problems they have quite a lot and time to show what that company means. When a problem has been detected with less than 30 000 flight machines, so the system has been changed. Now all of them, which is more than 22 600 flight behind, need to check a thousand flight every – that is, the system in focus all the time.

What do these break down by means of other aircraft manufacturers, models maintenance for?

– Need to go to the root of, i.e. what are these damage reason: whether they are design, manufacturing or material problem? As part of the area must then look at the wider processes.

Affect this, for example, finnair’s aircraft maintenance?

Aviation is the principle that we learn all the time and improving all the time. Regardless of who is the machine manufacturer, so certainly these issues will be reviewed in all of the machines

This is now in a short time another Boeing plane model, where you can find the problem. Why just Boeing?

– Boeing is a large airplane manufacturer, but I’m not really willing to evaluate the Boeing company. The company is very review of the target culture ever since. There is of course a key role in it, what kind of company culture and leadership culture is. It’s also the U.S. congress in the processed.

do we just Fly the Boeing 737 NG-model in Finland, will this cause measures in Finland?

Yes, they are Finnish, too, in the sky, as well as Finland in future that here the outbound. These measures main authority has been the Us authorities. Machines is published in the airworthiness directive, and it is determined what will be done and on what machine.

– Finnish airlines do not have these machines. Europe is following very closely the development of the situation, indeed, the European aviation safety agency follow this very closely.
