??Boeing has once again halted flight tests of its new wide-body jet, the 777X. This latest setback comes after the company discovered a malfunction in a component connecting the engine to the aircraft's fuselage.
??The issue was detected during a routine maintenance operation, when a part did not perform as expected. This new problem adds to a growing list of challenges that the 777X program has faced, leading to multiple delays. The aircraft was originally scheduled to enter service in 2020 but is now not expected to be certified until 2025.
??The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has yet to certify the 777X, and this latest delay could further push back that timeline. Boeing will continue to work closely with the FAA to address the issues and ensure that the aircraft is safe for commercial service.
