The Federal Aviation Administration ordered the immediate temporary halt of U.S Boeing Co.'s 787 Dreamliner flights on Wednesday, saying it requires a "corrective action plan" before flights can resume—and hasn't released a timetable for when that might happen.
The agency said it would work with Boeing and airlines to develop a plan to resume operations as quickly and safely as possible. United Continental Holdings Inc.'United Airlines said it would immediately ground its six 787s under the FAA order.
