We have learned new details about a Boeing 737 Max 9 jet incident where a door plug was lost just after takeoff. Alaska Airlines revealed that the plane was scheduled for maintenance on the same night as the blowout back in January. This incident has raised concerns about Boeing's standards and maintenance practices.
The scheduled maintenance of the Boeing 737 was crucial, as it was supposed to address any issues with the aircraft. Investigators are now questioning whether this maintenance check would have caught the omission of the critical door plug bolts that hold the plug onto the airplane. Additionally, they are looking into whether previous pressurization system warnings in the cockpit could have led to a check on the door plug.
