The National Transportation Safety Board is set to hold a public meeting about the door plug panel that blew out during a terrifying Alaska Airlines flight in January of 2024. On Tuesday the board will discuss what NTSB investigators uncovered about the Boeing 737 Max plane. The investigation has already revealed that bolts were never replaced after the door plug was removed during a repair. The NTSB is now set to approve a series of recommendations. The blow out during Alaska Airlines flight 1282 happened minutes after it took off from Portland, Oregon, and created a roaring air vacuum that sucked objects out of the cabin. No one was seriously hurt.
