Boeing made more news with a number of engine fires, including one in January that saw a Boeing 747 shooting sparks through the air, and another in March where flames shot out of an engine mid-flight on a Boeing 737-900. It’s not clear that Boeing was to blame in either case, but these events’ proximity to the company’s other recent issues didn’t assuage fears.
