FAA says all airlines operating Boeing 737-900ER jets should inspect door plugs to ensure they are properly secured

The recommendation follows the FAA’s grounding of 171 Boeing 737 Max 9 planes after the 5 January mid-air cabin blowout of a door plug on an eight-week-old Alaska Airlines Max 9 jet .
