Pirate parts pose threat to airlines

Article Abstract:

SAS has recently had to replace several wing cables following a warning by the US Federal Aviation Authority (FAA). The FAA warned that the cables may be unauthorised. To date, cable supplier Jacman Aircraft has failed to confirm their authenticity. Unauthorised parts come from crashed or old planes no longer in service. Maintenance staff have to be vigilant to detect them before they are installed.
