Several major airlines have started pulling jets from their fleets after reports found possibly faulty parts were installed.
American Airlines, United Airlines and Southwest Airlines have grounded several planes as they investigate parts sold by one company in particular: AOG Technics. The company, according to a lawsuit filed by General Electric, fabricated safety certificates needed for parts to be installed on passenger airplanes. Across the airline industry, 126 engines were found to contain parts from the company.
The parts sold with apparently fabricated certificates ranged from nuts and bolts to blades used in engine propulsion.
