(Reuters) – The Federal Aviation Administration issued an alert Thursday warning that unapproved parts might be installed in certain General Electric Model CF6 jet engines, telling owners to inspect planes or inventories for the parts.
The FAA says UK-based AOG Technics sold bushings for GE Model CF6 engines without having FAA approval. Jet engine maker CFM International said Wednesday thousands of engine components may have been sold with forged paperwork by AOG Technics.
