V-22 and CH-47 Production Restarted

By
Matthew Potter
(MoneyWatch)  After Boeing and Bell submitted a corrective plan the Department of Defense allowed production of these two aircraft to resume at the plant in suburban Philadelphia. As we reported earlier the lines were shut down due to the discovery of a foreign object in the fuel line of a recently completed V-22. Amarillo.com reports no definitive cause has been found yet, but production started again. All told the line was shut down for six days since last Friday.
