Your “gold standard“ landed in someone’s backyard.

The man who found the door in his back garden was lucky that he was not in his garden when it landed there. That is scary!
-
The deep problem is allowing manufacturers to certify their own machines. Boeing is one of those who has the authorization to do so, and that led to the 2 tragic crashes that grounded the fleet. The Federal Administration has to retake their duties and do the testing themselves to or not to certify models and mechanical/software upgrades to those models.

Flying with Boeing is not only an adventure, it's a real thriller.
-
This type of 'failure' is totally unacceptable. Period!
-
"the cockpit voice recorder was overwritten"... how could that possibly happen..? surely, after landing an 'emergency' flight (mayday) the plane should be treated with the same security as a crime scene...
-
what is funny is the response at the end, go "where the investigation takes us". These max planes were already investigated and it was found to have egregious TQM issues during production and a lack of FAA oversight throughout the duration. People were fired for trying to speak out saying there were quality concerns and Boeing refused to provide the requested training for their new software. Boeing is an example of too big to fail which is why so much of this is covered up and extended out so people forget.

Profits over people is the 🇺🇸 way

The two seats next to the plug were unoccupied. I find that rather interesting…
-
Legends says that if you shout “MAX” three times in your backyard the probability to be hit by a flying door is almost certain

Boeing has been in trouble for several years over quality control issues on its production lines. However, there's a new issue here. Why did Alaska keep the aircraft in service with pressurisation, a critical safety system, repeatedly indicating a fault? I expect the FAA will be asking the airline some hard questions.

I’m an A&P mechanic having worked on tons of 737s and this has never been an issue with the older 900 which has the exact same door design. This is likely an issue of shoddy maintenance or assembly work at the Boeing factory. Every day the shortage of technicians intensifies and there’s more and more completely inexperienced people put to work and assemble these things without even having gone through school and having 0 mechanical skills. Expect to see more of these type of crazy issues in the future.

Finally an interviewer that asked some direct, pointed questions to try to get to the bottom of things.

You were the gold standard in safety . I’m not sure that’s the case now after 2 Max crashes with MCAS and now an aircraft with three warnings still flying . Really you are taking safety seriously? It’s ok to fly just not over water just in case !
-
that plane should not have been in the air at all. they had warning lights they reset and repeatedly ignored. they put people's lives at risk
-
I'll bet some technician checked this out and told his boss it was a problem. But, fly the plane anyway. I've seen engine failures after reported metal in the oil filter. You don't want to know what faults they fly with on a regular basis. This could be a big problem.
-
5:23 EXCELLENT QUESTION. So freaking what if it's restricted from flying over water, it was still flying at HIGH ALTITUDE and PRESSURE differential, posing the same risk to life. Alaska has questions to answer.
-
To paraphrase an old saying, "If it's a Boeing I'm not going." And as for Bob the teacher, he can be grateful it was in his yard and not through the roof of his house.

Obviously, the lady investigator 1 does not know YET what happened and 2 is obviously trying to minimize the "incident". Realities are: the plane was BRAND NEW (10 weeks old) and if it had been flying higher there WOULD have been many victims. Tryng to shield Boeing may prove disastrous for passengers and ... for Boeing. Certification of new plane is DEFINITELY an issue in the US. No, the NTSB is NOT the gold standard in the world, FAR FROM IT.
-
On a brand new airplane by the way. No it’s not safe to fly any planes that were built in the last 10 years from Boeing. It’s really scary.
