- binarycrusader 14y agoThe fine article addresses this point: Before further flight, operators of U.S.-registered, Boeing 787 aircraft must demonstrate to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that the batteries are safe and in compliance So is it a "U.S.-registered" aircraft? And even if it is, it sounds like there may be a flight delay of hours at worst.

- jacquesm 14y agoIf you want to enter US airpspace or even fly to Canada, Mexico or even Colombia the FAA will most likely have a say in it.
- eduardordm 14y agoSo, it seems that the aircraft certifications are still valid, just the batteries need to be checked. That's just a immediate service bulletin then.
- lutorm 14y agoFAA airworthiness directives don't apply to all aircraft, only to those that are US-registered under certain categories.
