FDA 483 - American Airlines - November 01, 2018

An FDA inspection of American Airlines in Greensboro, NC, identified multiple quality control issues on a Boeing 737-800 aircraft modified by Haeco Airframes Services. Observations included numerous voids in sealant and unsealed fasteners across various compartments in the forward galley, forward lavatory, and aft galley. These findings suggest deficiencies in the maintenance and modification processes of the aircraft.
