Default Emergency landing needed as door plug explodes out of Alaskan airlines Boeing 737 Max 900

Plane was just built.

A boy thankfully had a seatbelt on sitting beside the hole but had his shirt sucked off his body and phone sucked out the plane.

Plane rapidly descended back to 10,000 feet before landing.

That is some crazy expletives.

Boeing is pretty sketchy these days. They are seeking a safety exemption for the 737 max 7 and 10, something about the de-icing thing getting to hot. And now the Max 10 having almost sucking people out of the plane problems. Choose your carrier wisely.

Wow…I guess flying at great heights and great speed and long distances…these planes being built by the lowest bidder is finally catching up with the airlines…I’d rather hitch hike than fly anywhere these days.
Glad that nobody got hurt though

There's a documentary about the decline of Boeing relating to the Max 8, it's become just another capital investment firm by speculators aiming at the bottom line. So much for, if it ain't Boeing I ain't going.

Just spend money on accountants to improve your stock price instead of engineers then bad things happen. Not sure why you would put a chunk of aluminum sheet instead of emergency door. Could the passengers in JAL major crash in Tokyo not have used extra door to vacate plane on fire in 2 minutes.

There are none of these planes in the Canadian inventory.

Yup. Another airline has found loose bolts. Curious how major this will become.

Call me freaked out but when I have booked flights lately I have tried to avoid the 737 MAX. Maybe it is just in my head but it just seems that are too many issues lately.

Should send a bottle of Loctite from Princess Auto to Boeing, problem with loose bolts solved then passengers can take off seat belts and relax on Max planes.

Boeing's corporate masters are expecting this proposal to get a quick approval from their friends in the FAA; same as any American financial institution and the SEC.

Maybe they could take Trudeau’s idea and put spare plugs in the men’s washrooms
