Planes are getting grounded amid concerns that some of their engine parts were sold with fraudulent safety certificates, the Daily Mail reported Thursday.
The Federal Aviation Administration and European investigators are probing the firm responsible for selling the parts, AOG Technics, for allegedly producing fake safety certificates to sell parts to airlines. So far, the FAA and its European counterparts have found AOG parts in 126 engines across multiple airlines. The most affected engine models are CFM56s, installed in jets ranging from the 737 MAX to the Airbus A320.The issue might be disastrous for the airline industry and regulators, which are suppose to institute stringent safety tests to ensure that parts, especially engine components, are airworthy.
"It's a bit strange that a phantom company can be allowed to supply spare parts with false certification documents," Safran CEO Olivier Andriès told reporters in September.
