NTSB Alaska Airlines 737 MAX Investigation
National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), it appears that bolts were absent from a door plug that forcefully ejected midair on an Alaska Airlines (AS) Boeing 737 MAX 9 last month.
Alaska Airlines (AS) resumed operations of its Boeing 737 MAX 9 (737-9) after conducting fleet inspections for the first time since a door plug incident occurred mid-air three weeks ago.
Alaska Airlines (AS) Boeing 737 MAX 9 (737-9) jet that experienced a fuselage panel detachment earlier this month had the panel removed for repair and was subsequently incorrectly reinstalled by Boeing mechanics on the Renton final assembly line
A potential tragedy was narrowly avoided on Friday night (Jan 5, 2023) when a panel on the Boeing plane blew out at 16,000 feet during an Alaska Airlines (AS) flight AS1282
