According to The Guardian, airlines around the world are asking to check for cracks in Boeing 737NG aircraft.

The Australian Aircraft Association called on Qantas to ban all Boeing 737s after a defect was discovered in one of the airliners during a technical inspection.

At the end of July, the Canadian airline Air Canada extended the cancellation of flights of the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft until January 8, 2020.

It is noted that such a decision was made in accordance with the notification of the Ministry of Transport of the country.

Earlier it was reported a reduction in the supply of Boeing aircraft.
