Italian prosecutors accuse 7 people, 2 firms over flawed Boeing plane parts

Italian prosecutors have accused seven individuals and two subcontractors of fraud and violating airplane safety regulations in connection with defective parts produced for Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner.

The investigation, initiated in late 2021, revealed that subcontractors allegedly used cheaper, non-compliant titanium and aluminum to manufacture parts, compromising their structural integrity and aviation safety.

Among those accused are Antonio Ingrosso, owner of Manufacturing Process Specification (MPS), and his father, Vincenzo, former head of Processi Speciali.

Prosecutors found at least 4,829 non-compliant titanium components and 1,158 aluminum components.

Boeing and its Italian partner Leonardo are considered victims in this case and have cooperated with the investigation, Reuters has reported.
