Passengers of an Alaska Airlines flight were in for a shock when one of the doors of the aircraft blew out mid-flight. Visuals on social media show how the mid-cabin exit door had completely separated from the aircraft. According to reports, passengers heard a loud bang and saw a hole in the wall of the plane, where a window had blown out. A childβs shirt was torn off due to the suction, and some passengers also lost their phones. Full story here.

Boeing is one airline ill never take
why was the maintenance and service checking so careless π
strict punishment must be given for the negligence ππ
Cheap bolts?
if it's not Boeing, i'm going!
π π’ we want to listen news not reading. V V sad to know there's no news anchor to read the news. π surely u r losing your subscribers. take it.ππ
I'm guessing the kid opened the door
Dangerous aircraft and FAA still look at the profits instead of passenger safety
Omg π±
America is cursed now… Sooner or later, it will be a wasteland..
Better to avoid flying altogether. Anything made by humans – including other humans – is intrinsically flawed and will eventually fail.π€
If it's Boeing, I am not going
Mask arrangements got checked
Alaska Airlines has had a checkered past. They'd been put under close scrutiny for several years by the FAA, because they neglected to do inspections of the horizontal stabilizer trim jack screw assembly on their MD-80 aircraft, that led to a failure of the system, on an airliner and crash. ———- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Airlines_Flight_261 A lead aircraft mechanic blew the whistle about the situation, and was blackballed out of the industry for it.
As long as company management who knows nothing about the inner workings of an airplane are totally in charge, without internal checks and balances that work, so the front line mechanics can ground an airplane without fear of company reprisal, then these things will periodically happen.
What's disheartening to me, a retired aircraft mechanic, is that the public rushes to blame the mechanics. If the public would only see how constant the undermining of our jobs and authority is, they'd have a different viewpoint. Airline mechanics and our families fly on these airplanes. Some of us, myself included frequently fly on test flights after an airliner has come out of a heavy maintenance(overhaul) visit. Sometimes test flight pilots insist on it. We also work on the line, at the gates, and see our passengers and their children boarding our airplanes. We take very seriously the safety of our aircraft. We're always up against the clock, the manager, and our own judgement.
As far as I know, no CEO of any airline has never done a structural inspection, or engine boroscope inspection on an airplane, and wouldn't because they're too busy crunching numbers.
They got the best view the rest of the flight
It was dumb luck that nobody was sitting on the adjacent seat that fell off the airplane.
Another Boeing defect. I refuse to fly the Boeing Max.
People will be already getting used to this when flying max737.,These are minor ,that they live to tell (luckily noone was on that seat nor next to that seat .)vs those 2 the dive straight.
This is most probalya factory defect as the plane was very new and this part of door is optional for use . If more passengers are in plane then its made active. It was locked but some defect allowed it to losen .
Do you think they can find that "door" somewhere in Canada ?
Boeing has become the Fiat of aviation!!!
Boeing has failed in delivering reliable aircrafts especially after 777 max
Boeing are a bush league organization that donβt give a F about safety. FAA is complicit in this bs too probably.
The FAA in the United States has grounded 171 Boeing 737 -9 airliners after the door of an Alaska Airlines fell off just minutes after takeoff on Friday 5th January 2024.
Quite a contrast to Airbus who has come in for a lot of credit with the sort of materials used in the construction of their a350 which although caught fire at Haneda airport in Tokyo but the way the outer materials burned at a slower rate, gave the JAL airline staff the time needed to evacuate the whole aircraft.
Boeing's reputation is just getting worse and worse.
The most effed-up part about this is that the seat which blew out of the plane just miraculously happened to be unoccupied.
This is why I never sit by the exit ..
Anyone who gets on a plane like that is tired of life. The quality of Boeing aircraft has reached a low point in the company's history.
