Fire and rescue workers who responded to a Boeing 787 lithium-ion battery fire at Logan Airport last week reported that it was difficult to access the battery for removal during extinguishing efforts, the NTSB said Monday, in an update on its investigation. All the workers who responded to the incident had previously received aircraft familiarization training on the 787. The board said investigators have examined the battery using radiographic and tomography scans to document its internal condition, and will disassemble it this week. The NTSB also has downloaded all the data from the airplane's flight data and cockpit voice recorders for analysis.
