WASHINGTON, March 15 (Reuters) - Boeing said Friday it told airlines operating 787 Dreamliners to check flight deck switches after a sudden mid-air dive by a LATAM Airlines LTM.SN 787 plane left more than 50 people injured.

Boeing said Friday it took the precautionary measure of reminding operators of a 2017 service bulletin detailing instructions for inspecting and maintaining flight deck seat switches. "We are recommending operators perform an inspection at the next maintenance opportunity," Boeing said Friday.
