WASHINGTON . – New problems potentially catastrophic for the futuristic Boeing 787 Dreamliner. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) American, reports CNN, issued an order to change the procedures for maintenance of the jet after it has determined that the plane, to a bug in the software, can undergo the total, sudden and irremediable blackout of all electrical systems if the generators are kept in operation continuously for 248 days below. If you exceed this limit, the software shuts off the power (as a life-saver of domestic systems) interpreting the continuous activity of the generators as a dangerous anomaly, without taking into account the lethal consequences. An event that if it were to occur in flight pilots would lose control of the aircraft. Boeing has said that they are aware of the problem and that he had ordered from time to cycle power generators after every flight. Not only. Is also working to find a solution to the software. This is however the last grain in time for the 787 whose life has been marked by delays and problems. Nicknamed the plane “plastic” for its composite structure and super light, she entered service in 2011 but already in 2013 there emerged a serious malfunction in the battery system, which overheated, and that led the US authorities to put him on the ground for a few months.
