The Federal Aviation Administration has ordered operators of Boeing 737 Max jets to address a fault in the aircraft’s environmental control system that can cause the cabin to become dangerously hot.
In an order issued Feb. 24, the FAA said it received two reports of in-flight incidents involving “excessive cabin and flight deck temperatures that could not be controlled by the flight crew using existing procedures.”
