An Alaska Airlines flight has been forced to make an emergency landing after a large panel on the side of the plane was sucked out.
The incident caused a rapid decompression of the cabin, although itās understood oxygen masks were deployed.
The plane had to return to Portland 35 minutes into its flight to California when trouble struck.
Alaska Airlines confirmed 174 passengers and six crew members were on the flight.
The airlineās Chief Executive said their fleet of Boeing 737-9 aircraft will be temporarily grounded and returned to service after full maintenance and safety inspections, which the airline is anticipating they will complete within days.

The aircraft hasn't had a good service life
The fruits of DEI
If a situation like this happens and people think there are literally going to die, and someone does something really inappropriate, do you think they will let them off the hook because they literally thought they were going to die?
Was this new plane made in China š¤
Was the aircraft made in China?
I wont fly on any Boeing MAX aircraft .
DEI , turning everything to crap
And this is why most airlines donāt allow kids in these seats, thank god everyone is safe, although traumatised.
i want to know that why australian media show news from other countries instead of their own country ?
Brachi ā ļø yet?
Wow, now how many aircraft do we have flying around now with the same potential problem. Looks like boeing has got a problem.

Omg
What happenings to Boeing 737 Max??.. it should be grounded and not allowed to fly.. all Airlines should change to other type Of aircraft
This news presenterās facial expressions are so exaggerated and she has a shrill voiceā¦.not pleasant to watch or listen to
Who would want to FLY on a Boeing MAX ? Only those who want to take their own life .Not me,
Another episode that makes grim reading about the 737 Max.
This wouldn't have occurred if they were using Airbus
'Fragile Defective Boeing plane'. If airlines stop buying Boeing planes, the company may improve their build quality.
And this is why I prefer an aisle seat.
Typical Boeing crap. Made in America is not known for quality but only for patriotism and this what we have here.
Wow. Good video. What if happened at cloud level? š¢ if there is a passenger sitting next to open exit, not sure what would be the survival chance? Keen to know whether it is better to change seat or remain seated?
Must have been scary
Moral of the story is: if you run an airline DON'T BUY BOEING
Tax increases are guaranteed when you elect a ALP (Labor) socialist left government.
I choose not to fly A Boeing in future
WTF with airlines nowadays…
Please banned the Boeing MAX, as this airplane model is not safe due to many crashes involved with this plane! Please look after the safety of all passengers!
