umich Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The Federal Aviation is ordering the grounding of the model of Boeing plane involved in the Alaska Airlines blowout incident. The FAA said the planes must be parked until emergency inspections are performed, which will “take around four to eight hours per aircraft.” The order impacts 171 Boeing 737 MAX 9 jets, the agency approximates. https://www.cnn.com/business/live-news/alaska-airlines-boeing-01-06-24/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taste of Honey Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Hopefully this is just a one off, but this plane has obviously been plagued by issues. Boeing needs to really get itself together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily there were no injuries on the Alaska Air incident and hopefully it’s just isolated like @Taste of Honey mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Boeing doc on Netflix had me sick. Apparently it was worse when Dennis was CEO at the time those two MAX 8s crashed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEX Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I was buying tickets last night and noticed one of my flights was on Boeing 737 Max 9. Didn't think much of it. Then I wake up to this news in the morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shinyshimmery Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Boeing’s reputation is forever tarnished. They’re gonna have to rebrand bc many people (myself included) are purposefully avoiding flying their aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
