On September 25, the US Federal Aviation Administration issued an airworthiness directive requiring that some Boeing 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10 aircraft cargo cabin liner joint sealing tape be checked for missing and repaired if necessary. According to the FAA, the related problem stemmed from quality omissions in the production process. If the tape is missing, the fire may spread to the cabin area. This measure involved 87 US-registered aircraft. The FAA said Boeing has revised the relevant installation process and identified the serial numbers of potentially affected aircraft.
