abcnews.go.com/US/boeing-overwrote-surveillance-footage-door-plug-repair-ntsb/story
Quick Glance: Alaska Airlines Flight Maintenance and Safety
- Alaska Airlines flight 1282, on which a door plug blew off the side of the plane shortly after takeoff on January 5, was scheduled to be taken out of service for maintenance the same day, according to the airline.
- The National Transportation Safety Board found that Boeing probably did not put required bolts in the door plug to prevent that part from blowing off the plane.
- NTSB discovered that concerns with warning lights led Alaska Airlines to restrict the plane from carrying passengers on long-haul routes over water.
- While the maintenance schedule alignment does not necessarily implicate Alaska Airlines, it does raise further concerns regarding the maintenance policies and regulations of America's fleet.
