American Airlines--good news?

Most of us have already heard that American received clearance from the FAA to return all of its 300 grounded jets to service.

What makes me wonder is the rest of the comment I read today (emphasis added). American said it thought the needed repair work had been completed but the FAA said the wiring was still not secured and stowed properly in wheel wells. Say what?

CEO Gerald Arpey said the airline would hire a consultant to make sure it complied with FAA safety rules in the future. Again I am shaking my head.
