FAA Fine American Airlines $7.1M for Safety, Drug-Testing Violation [updated]

"Breaking News >> Federal Aviation Officials Accuse American Airlines of Safety, Drug-Testing Violations"

Edited to add:
"Among the violations, the Federal Aviation Administration alleges that American last December improperly deferred maintenance work on safety-related equipment when returning two aircraft to service after pilots had reported problems. The planes then flew 58 times, according to the FAA."
