WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The National Transportation Safety Board and Boeing have not been able to determine who removed a door plug in a new 737 MAX 9 Alaska Airlines 737 MAX 9 that suffered a mid-air emergency in January, the board’s chair said Tuesday.
NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy told reporters Boeing needs to make significant improvements to its safety practices. “The safety culture needs a lot of work (at Boeing),” she said. “It is not there from the evidence itself, from what you see in the interviews. There’s not a lot of trust, there’s a lot of distrust within the workforce.”
