Mechanics at Boeing have completed reworks on the last of 122 Boeing 787 Dreamliners following the discovery of small gaps in the joins between fuselage sections on the aircraft. As highlighted by the Seattle Times, the aircraft had to be stored long-term until the issues could be addressed.

The structural repairs were necessary to ensure the integrity and safety of each plane. The company has now finished addressing these concerns, allowing for normal operations to resume.

Boeing's efforts to rectify this issue underscore its commitment to maintaining high safety standards in its fleet.
