Honeywell ELT Probed in Latest 787 Fire

The UK Air Accidents Investigations Board (AAIB) confirmed on Tuesday that it has “invited” Honeywell, the maker of the emergency locator transmitter in the Boeing 787, to join the investigation into the fire that erupted last Friday in an Ethiopian Airlines Dreamliner parked at London Heathrow Airport. It would not, however, specifically identify the ELT as the ignition source.
