Fears Boeing 757 slides won’t deploy lead to safety warning

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has issued new safety recommendations in response to fears that Boeing 757 emergency slides may not deploy. 

On April 3, 2025, the NTSB said that, during an ongoing investigation of an emergency landing involving FedEx flight 1376, a bannis latch was found that did not comply with safety regulations. 

A FedEx Boeing 757-236 received an engine indication and crew alerting system message on October 4, 2023, indicating a failure of the left hydraulic system shortly after takeoff.
