United Airlines announced on Friday that federal regulators are stepping up their oversight of the airline in response to a series of recent safety incidents. These incidents include a piece of the outer fuselage falling off a jet, an engine fire, and a plane losing a tire during takeoff.
The airline's vice president of corporate safety stated that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will be examining various areas of United's operation to ensure safety compliance. The FAA will be reviewing work processes, manuals, and facilities in the coming weeks.
