Flight service will resume upon the completion of duct taping the doors of the 737 fleet.
Awwwwwwwwww
This is a Boeing manufacturing problem.
Your opinion on the plane? "Let's keep paying out taxes and don't shut down the government" lol wtf
people do not understand how big problem this is. missing or loose bolt? and 4 of them? you know there is the person who install the bolt with the correct torque. a second senior mechanic inspected the torque and then a QA personnel do a inspection. this is a whole chain of failures. if you can not trust the senior mechanic and the QA who did the inspection. every jet they have touch are not safe. not just these 4 bolts, I mean every part of the jet they have worked on.
Okay thanks al international and community my family all brothers and sisters my family all amid and all international and community my family all USA the government my family all American and all history my family all palatine the government my family all west bank and Gaza all the government my family all also and from Gaza and all airlines and all company and all freedom and Democratic policies and all also food and all gas and all trucks and Humanity my family all brothers and sisters my family all peace OK thanks
There is no connection? What??? No 737max-8 airplane was ever convicted.
Boeing was charged and found guilty for fraud because of the MAX program!!!
It’s like good luck with the Hawaiian airlines merger. You guys need those Airbuses
You are safer on an older plane that has had good maintenance done on it.
Fake eyelashes need to go. Makes their eyes look either not open, or barely open. Who started this fad?
Ford engines began to fail after engine production was moved to Mexico. Also using sub-standard valve suppliers, to save money.
Boeing and Ford were great under Alan. Alan Roger Mulally is an American aerospace engineer and manufacturing executive. He served as the CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes from 1998 to 2006, and later as president and chief executive officer of the Ford Motor Company from 2006 to 2014.
"No, there is no connection between this "incident on the Max9 and the crashed jets Max8"! This guy is a joke! Of course there is: Boeings QC is very poor, redundancy is inexistant at Boeing. EVERYTHING is calling for a complete overhaul of Boeing's QA, design verification. It won't be a five minutes job.
Boeing's top priority: make profits and don't bother us with "details" such as passenger safety.
Time to switch to Airbus
This is all #RyanAir’s fault. If they didn’t require more seats in their airplanes Boeing wouldn’t have designed that door plug opening.
Boeing should sue Ryan Air!
The problem is after so many crashes, top 1 in the world fatalities, Boeing is still allowed to make planes.
Airbus 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺👍
Like the military industrial complex got there $$$ ,Boeing I got my $$$.
Why has Alaska Airlines and United Airlines own Maintenance and Serving Aviation Engineers, only now in the last few days found more of these securing locking bolts and nuts being loose on Boeing 737 Max aircraft.
Which secure these emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections?
That is after last weekend's Alaska Airline Boeing 737 Max 9 aircraft, was involved in a Mid Air Accident Incident, with one of these emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections, blow out and off the aircraft fuselage!
Why did not either Alaska Airlines and United Airlines own Maintenance and Serving Aviation Engineers, found any of these securing locking bolts and nuts being loose on Boeing 737 Max aircraft.
That is before last weekend's Mid Air Accident Incident, or for that matter any other Airline operating Boeing 737 Max aircraft around the world either?
Maybe the FAA and NSTB, plus British CAA and European Aviation Authorities and their own Countries Air Accident Investigation Units, should be questioning Airlines around the world, who operate Boeing 737 Max aircraft.
Also the News Media asking questions of Airlines who operate and fly passengers on Boeing 737 Max Aircraft, why have none of you found ant of these securing locking bolts and nuts being loose on Boeing 737 Max aircraft.
Which secure these emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections, also not reported to Aviation Authorities or to Boeing that is before Alaska Airlines Mid Air Accident Incident of last weekend??
Instead everyone are trying to place all the blame, on Boeing Personnel and Boeing Company quality Control process is to blame.
The Airlines own Maintenance and Serving Aviation Engineers, are not to blame in any way, come on everyone these Airlines are only now reporting they are finding these loose securing locking bolts and nuts on these emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections.
That is after the event, a emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Section blow out and off a Boeing 737 Max 9 aircraft belonging to Alaska Airlines, also only after the FAA and NSTB ordered grounding and inspection of suspected Boeing 737 aircraft too.
I would say Alaska Airlines own Maintenance and Serving Aviation Engineers, should have found these loose securing locking bolts and nuts on these emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections, long before this Mid Air Accident Incident happened?.
So the blame for this Mid Air Accident Incident, should be shared between Boeing and Alaska Airlines!
Or should be equally and evenly shared between other Airlines too, who did not find this problem or issue of loose securing locking bolts and nuts on their own Boeing 737 aircraft emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections too!
Then maybe some guilty over allowing this Mid Air Accident Incident to happen in the first place, should be placed on the FAA and NSTB Inspectors.
Have all are they FAA and/or NSTB Inspectors, have a duty and requirement to inspect new Aircraft before they go into service or while they are being built too?
Similarly the FAA and/or NSTB Inspectors, have a duty and requirement to inspect Airlines operational aircraft, plus Airlines Maintenance and Serving Aviation Engineers and aircraft undergoing maintenance and serving or repairs etc too?
Though no FAA or NO NSTB Inspectors, found any of these loose securing locking bolts and nuts, on any Boeing 737 Max aircraft emergency exit doorway non-opening Plug Sections either before last weekend Alaska Airlines Mid Air Accident Incident did they too!
The FAA is still a joke controlled by the corporations they are supposed to regulate.
Plugs are also defined as migrants from various city's abroad, that bunk up in trap housing in order to sell crack cocaine packaged in small baggies called "buns". These dealers are called plugs.
John Nance is a dirty rotten liar boeing knew exactly what they were hiding pilots can't train on systems hidden from them and they murdered those 300 and some people
The plural of "aircraft" is "aircraft". Journalism school.
When the safety regulaors and the manufacor are one big gang, what can you expect?
I worked for Boeing for 13 years and worked on 737 Max. Boeing lies to everyone they preach safety first, but they put profits 1st. The things I have seen while working there are just heartbreaking. When you bring up an issue, they just treat you like a troublemaker.
DONT FLY ON THE 737 MAX !!!!!
Bad video.
I'd bet Boeing pressured the employees to use discrepant bolts and nuts for these plug doors, because of post-pandemic supply chain shortages in order to keep the production line humming. The specified fasteners should not work loose as they have locking device designed in. If this turns out to be true, who knows what are the other yet to be discovered compromised systems that are critical to safety of lives.
FAA is too cozy with the manufacturers. Even as this fiasco is unfolding there is no transparency of what FAA has discovered from the airlines' preliminary inspections that reported "loose bolts and discrepant parts". I suspect FAA and Boeing are both sweating bullets trying to frame the inspection procedure to fit the wrong doing during the manufacturing of these planes.
More Govt oversight?? 😂😂
The FAA is bought and paid for by Boeing, just like the FDA is bought and paid for by the Pharma lobby!
Yet these cows keep thinking hiring more Govt bureaucrats will solve the issue!
