Latvia’s Air Baltic restarted revenue flights with its Bombardier CS300s on Thursday after grounding all seven of its narrowbodies to attend to “technical nuances” involving their Pratt & Whitney PW1500G geared turbofans. It added that it expected to finish inspecting all seven of the airplanes on Thursday and clear them for operation by the end of the day.
