WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The National Transportation Safety Board on Thursday urged the Federal Aviation Administration to require airlines to inspect latches on Boeing 757 airplane doors after a 2023 emergency evacuation of a FedEx ( FDX ) flight in Tennessee, and to replace them if needed.

The NTSB also wants the FAA to require Boeing 727 and 737 operators that use the same latch design to inspect and replace them if warranted.
