Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-300s aircraft this month, 1 hole in fuselage during flight, emergency landing, the FAA subsequently ordered an investigation of all U.S. Boeing 737s series aircraft. Aviation experts and aircraft design engineers that Boeing 737s worldwide, serving a total of 6000 series aircraft, the flight holes there may be hidden, requires a comprehensive examination as well as maintenance.

Holes in aircraft fuselage riveted aluminum plate at the air. This phenomenon may be related to human factors or external factors is not much correlation with the number of aircraft movements and the associated accumulated flight time. Preliminary investigation determined that the potential danger of such a comprehensive inspection is necessary.

Boeing 737s series over the past nearly 30 years anywhere in the world airliner's "main" one. Released in the U.S. media distribution 737s series aircraft in the table, Southwest Airlines and Continental Airlines is to have 300 Boeing 737s series, 400 and 500 aircraft up to the United States air carriers.

However, 737s series of "customers" are not in the United States, while in other countries. Operators of these other countries, according to the number of aircraft owned 737s series rankings, respectively, Russia UT Airlines, Indonesia, remember Eagle Airlines, Air New Zealand and China's three major air carriers.

In addition, the Boeing 737s series or the number of heads of state and dignitaries popular executive jet or private plane. Saying by the Associated Press, President of Peru and Chile have one, there is a Thai Crown Prince.

Aviation experts also told the Associated Press, there may be similar to the hidden dangers of the aircraft is not only the older model 737s series aircraft, because the plane at the design riveting 90 years since the last century there has been no change.

Holes in the investigation immediately after the incident the week, the hole in the incident have not been characterized as manufacturing defects or design defects. Boeing early 90s of last century update 737s series aircraft fuselage panel riveting at the design, then released a new version of riveting maintenance requirements at 60,000 times per flight maintenance time. But the Associated Press 9, Boeing senior mechanical engineer quoted as saying, and now confirmed that this was a mistake. Because there holes in the Boeing 737-300s aircraft total number of flights less than 4 million, less than 15 years of service
