Јапонската комисија за воздухопловни и железнички несреќи утврдила дека пожарот кој минатата година се јавил кај Боинг 737-800 на кинескиот оператор Чајна Ерлајнс (China Airlines - CAL), бил предизвикан од пробиен резервоар за гориво во десното крило на авионот. До пробивањето на резервоарот најверојатно дошло поради тоа што на една навртка (штраф) на преткрилцето, механичарите не ставиле подлошка или народски кажано - шајбна!
Report indicates missing washer caused 737 fuel tank fire
Flight International (9/1, Francis) reported, "A Japanese investigation, into a China Airlines (CAL) Boeing 737-800 that had a fuel tank fire last year, has said it is highly possible CAL maintenance personnel failed to attach a washer to the bolt on the right wing slat and that is why the bolt moved, puncturing the fuel tank. Fuel escaping from the puncture then ignited, creating a fire that completely destroyed the aircraft and led the 165 people on board to disembark quickly to safety." Although Japan's Aircraft and Railway Accidents Investigation Commission disclosed last year that it had found a bolt on the 737-800's right wing slat that had pierced the fuel tank, it was previously not known why the bolt had moved. The commission noted that, "since the incident, Boeing has changed the design of the bolt nut to make it larger." In response to the finding, CAL issued "a statement saying it 'reviewed its maintenance records and confirmed that it completed the required inspections in a timely manner."
