Air India plane crash raises concerns about Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner safety and recent company issues.
The recent Air India plane crash involving a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner has brought attention back to Boeing, the manufacturer of the aircraft. Boeing stated that the 787-8 is the best-selling widebody passenger aircraft in aviation history, having carried over 1 billion passengers since its introduction in 2011. Boeing expressed support for Air India and all those affected by the crash. Following the crash, Boeing's stock saw a decline in pre-market trading. While this incident marks the first crash involving a 787-8 Dreamliner, the aircraft has been subject to previous investigations. It remains uncertain if reported assembly issues are connected to the Air India crash. The plane in the crash had a history of over 41,000 flying hours and almost 8,000 takeoffs and landings. This incident comes in the wake of Boeing facing safety concerns, including investigations and lawsuits related to the crashes of its 737 Max jetliners.
