Alaska 1282 Portland 737-9 MAX Door Failure
Re: Alaska 1282 Portland 737-9 MAX Door Failure
Guy named Bob (a science teacher) found the Boeing door plug in his yard.
Hey NTSB, you looking for part of an airplane? Check out my yard.

If I read correctly, this aircraft had three pressurization issue events that were intermittent. This would definitely explain why.

BREAKING: NTSB has reported that the two upper guide tracks were fractured. However, the NTSB structural specialist stated that the door translated upwards before the track was fractured I.e. it is unlikely that the stop bolt/pin was in place and that the fracture of the track allowed the initial upward motion required to decouple the stop fittings.

There had been a couple of pressurization issues noted before this event but the airline’s solution was to tell that jet to not fly over the ocean for an extended time.

Reportedly, United has found at least 5 planes with loose bolts in their plug doors, but they’re all in different places in the doors so it’s not just one bolt or bolt location that’s a problem.

I think many people see this in the same way. Too many edibles in lunches in the factory now?

Money more important then safety. Defective parts and processes. No surprise

Always switch with an obese person to plug that door.
