Bolts holding a door plug in place on an Alaska Airlines flight were missing, the National Transportation Safety Board found in a preliminary report released on Tuesday.
Four bolts meant to hold the Boeing 737 Max 9 door plug in place were missing last month when part of a plane blew out on an Alaska Airlines flight, the National Transportation Safety Board found in a preliminary report released on Tuesday. The door plug, which covers an unused exit door, is typically secured with four bolts to prevent it from moving vertically, according to the report.
' 'This incident should have never happened and it cannot happen again,' the FAA said Tuesday. 'The FAA is continuing to support the National Transportation Safety Board's investigation into the Jan. 5 door plug incident.'A Boeing spokesperson said the company is reviewing the NTSB's findings and will cooperate with NTSB and FAA investigations.
