NTSB Recommends FAA Review Passenger Seat Inspections

The National Transportation Safety Board has issued a recommendation for enhanced oversight of passenger seat inspections.

The National Transportation Safety Board recommends that the Federal Aviation Administration instruct principal maintenance inspectors to review the adequacy of passenger seat inspections conducted by air carrier, air taxi, and commercial operators. The review should ensure that inspections address cracks, corrosion, and the adequacy of any repairs.
