The Truth About Boeing 787 Fuel Control Switches

In this episode, Captain Steeeve breaks down exactly how the Boeing 787’s fuel control switches work — and clears up a lot of the misinformation going around.

Steeeve also walks through the safety features that make accidental activation extremely unlikely, and puts to rest some of the more far-fetched theories about how they operate.
