The FAA is proposing two civil penalties totaling $987,500 against Delta Air Lines (DL) for allegedly operating an Airbus A320 and a Boeing 737-800 on flights when they were not in compliance with federal aviation regulations. According to an FAA statement, it is proposing a civil penalty of $300,000 against DL for allegedly operating an Airbus A320 on 884 flights between May 25, 2010 and Jan. 3, 2011, after deferring repair of a broken cockpit floodlight socket at the first officer’s position. “Maintenance procedures allow the airline to defer repairs on a dome light for no more than 10 days before repairing or replacing it,” the FAA said, pointing out it discovered the alleged violation during a routine inspection. The FAA also said it is proposing a civil penalty of $687,500 against DL for failing to repair a chip in the nose radome, or nose cone, on a 737-800 after an FAA inspector had observed chip damage during a preflight inspection. “DL’s structural repair manual requires the airline to seal radome chip damage before further flight. The en-route inspection took place Feb. 25, 2010, and the airline operated the plane on 20 additional flights between that date and March 1 while the aircraft was not in compliance,” FAA said. It further alleges DL again failed to repair the radome during layover inspections of the aircraft Feb. 25 and 28. A DL spokesperson told ATW: “The safety and security of our customers and crew is Delta’s highest core value. At no time was either of these aircraft operating in an unsafe manner. Once Delta verified the concerns of the FAA, Delta initiated immediate and necessary actions to ensure that the aircraft were in full compliance with the regulatory requirements.” DL has 30 days to respond to the agency.Faa proposes 987 500 in civil penalties against delta - Tin Coin Box ManufacturerFaa proposes 987 500 in civil penalties against delta - Tin Coin Box ManufacturerFaa proposes 987 500 in civil penalties against delta - Tin Coin Box Manufacturer I am an expert from metaltincontainer.com, while we provides the quality product, such as Tin Coin Box Manufacturer , China Square Tin Containers, Square Tin Containers,and more.
