Boeing’s Inadequate ‘Training, Guidance and Oversight’ Led to Mid-Exit Door Plug Blowout on Passenger Jet

Source: NTSB ​​​​FAA cited for ineffective oversight of Boeing’s known recordkeeping issues The National Transportation Safety Board has said the probable cause of last year’s in-flight mid-exit door (MED) plug blowout on a Boeing 737 MAX 9 was Boeing’s failure to “provide adequate training, guidance and oversight” to its factory workers.

The investigation found that accurate and ongoing data about overall safety [...]
