The Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into Boeing following a series of alarming incidents involving their aircraft. The probe stems from a door blowing out on an Alaska Airlines flight in January, prompting concerns over compliance with previous settlements related to fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019.
Recently, United Airlines experienced multiple frightening events involving Boeing jets. One incident saw an engine catching fire on a flight from Houston to Fort Myers, causing panic among passengers. Fortunately, the plane landed safely back in Houston, with no injuries reported. The engine fire was attributed to a piece of bubble wrap being sucked into the engine.
