Boeing finds no defect in Air India Dreamliner fuel switch

Boeing's examination of the fuel control switch locking mechanism on an Air India Boeing 787-8 found no abnormality after a pilot reported a defect on a London-Bengaluru flight on February 2. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) ordered OEM-level testing in Seattle, but further inspection of the Thrust Control Module is underway. The probe follows a fatal crash last year where fuel supply was cut off, killing 260.
