FAA orders inspections of hundreds of Boeing 737 MAX jets for cracks

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has ordered inspections of hundreds of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft for possible cracks. The order affects around 470 planes, though some reports mention up to 1,900 older models. The inspections focus on cracks around doors and are a precautionary measure after cracks were found in some older aircraft. The FAA's directive aims to ensure the safety of the Boeing fleet.
