Pressure bulkhead fasteners, but not safety related? Color me skeptical.
Literally the deadliest single-aircraft disaster in history was because of faulty aft pressure bulkhead repairs on a Boeing airplane.
This is obviously a different situation though, and I’m sure it can be rectified without serious expense. Better that we know about it and know how to fix it.
It’s fine. The cost of compensating victims is less than fixing the issue so yeah it’s safe.
