Boeing delays some 737 Max deliveries after new quality defect, Reuters says

Boeing (BA) said on Sunday it will have to do more work on about 50 undelivered 737 MAX airplanes, potentially delaying near-term deliveries, after its supplier Spirit AeroSystems (SPR) discovered two mis-drilled holes on some fuselages, Reuters’ Tim Hepher and Valerie Insinna report. Boeing confirmed the findings in response to a Reuters query after industry sources said a spacing problem had been discovered in holes drilled on a window frame, but the jetmaker said safety was unaffected and existing 737s could keep flying.
