Boeing 787s Must Swap Leaky Lavatory Faucets for Safety
Published Date: 6/16/2025
Proposed Rule
Summary
If you fly certain Boeing 787 planes, the FAA wants you to keep checking under the lavatory sinks for leaks like before, but now you’ll also need to replace the faucet control module with a better version to stop leaks for good. This means more inspections, a leak test, and adding moisture control gadgets, all to keep flights safe. These changes could cost some money and need to happen soon to avoid problems.
