Boeing now is working with American Airlines to resolve the problem. Newly-suggested guidelines for airlines will cover more than 900 B767 aircraft now in service worldwide.
The cracks were discovered by American's mechanics as they were performing unrelated work. They found cracks on one jet with fewer than 500 flights after its last inspection.
