National Transportation Safety Board head said Boeing should have addressed unauthorized door plug production
The head of the National Transportation Safety Board said on Wednesday the Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max 9 midair emergency was entirely avoidable because the planemaker should have addressed unauthorized production work long ago.
“This accident should have never happened. This should have been caught years before,” the NTSB chair, Jennifer Homendy, told reporters on the second day of a hearing into the 5 January incident.
