Boeing accepts responsibility for the incident in which a door plug blew out of a 737 Max 9 mid-flight last month, says its chief executive officer, Dave Calhoun.
More airlines are returning their grounded Boeing 737 MAX 9 planes to the air following the Federal Aviation Administration’s release of a list of actions to deal with door plugs on the model.
Alaska Airlines is expected to lose at least US$50 million (RM236.5 million) after the United States Federal Aviation Administration grounded 171 Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft as a response to the door plug that blew off mid-flight on January 5 and tore a hole in the fuselage.
The door plug of the Boeing 737 Max 9 that blew out on an Alaska Airlines flight was made in Malaysia, the United States’ National Transportation Safety Board has confirmed.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will keep Boeing 737-9 MAX grounded for the safety of American travellers until extensive inspection and maintenance are conducted and data from inspections is reviewed, the FAA said on its website Friday.
