Boeing's latest snag: Are pilots strong enough to turn a crank in an emergency?

The problem, which hasn’t been previously reported on, has been the focus of weeks of engineering analysis, simulator sessions and flight testing by the plane maker and American air-safety officials, according to people familiar with the details.
