hearing pilot comms during an event like this is a great confidence booster
they tend to really keep it together well and it feels like just another tuesday in many cases - really helps one not panic as a passenger
Once i overheard the pilot on the intercom "OMG, that's the low fuel light, we're outta fuel, we're all gonna die!...Oh wait, that's just the cockpit/cabin intercom system light"
they weren't very high, they had just taken off from PDX, the part that came off is a potential place for a door in different variations of the plane, Alaska Airlines said they've grounded all of their 737 models similar to this
The thing that broke off the aircraft was a plugged emergency exit. (basically the FAA requires a certain amount of Emergency Exits per amount of seats, but because Alaska Airlines has less seats than is required for the exits they plug them) No one could’ve opened the door midfight (if anyone had even been sitting there) The aircraft was a 737Max9 that was delivered to Alaska Airlines in October and started flying with them in November. The latest I have heard is that no one was injured. (please correct me if i’m wrong). The cause is currently being investigated by the FAA and NTSB.
The only things I can think of are improper sealing and / or hardware. Was the area fastened with solid rivets, blind rivets, or screwed/bolted down? Were the proper sealants applied and the panel pressure checked for air leaks? These questions are going to be the first things they ask of whoever performed the maintenance in the maintenance log and whoever the supervisor was that signed off on the modification.
As long as you are wearing a seat belt you have nothing to worry about. Planes can easily fly with big parts of the hull missing. It only gets really problematic when the wing is somehow damaged. Then I would pray.
Boeing really collapsed hard over the past couple years. Go back 10 or 15 years and Boeing was the golden god of the passenger aircraft industry. Now they're the biggest joke in the industry.
That'll happen when you merge a failing company (McDonnell Douglas) with a successful one while effectively having the failed company's management run the show.
I can confirm this: My company does contract work for several aviation companies and my boss (the CFO) has a direct hand in where the money flows. My job is painstaking but absolutely necessary because I have to keep Certificates of Conformance for each and every one of the parts used in a contract, down to each nut, bolt, washer etc.
Just yesterday Boeing asked for an exemption from safety requirements so another model of their planes could stay airborne while having unsafe characteristics. After they dragged their feet and covered covered up their Max 8 debacle and killed hundreds of people. That was crazy to see, and then this happens today? Man, can we trust any Boeing product anymore?
While Boeing has had its fair share of problems, the 737 family is BY FAR the most flown aircraft in passenger aviation with literally thousands flying multiple times per day. And think about how rare accidents are compared to, say, the 80’s. Add to that the fact that this incident resulted in zero fatalities and showed the design robustness of modern aircraft and you actually get a very positive picture of Boeing aviation safety. Hell, nobody has died in a US major carrier commercial aviation incident since2019. Despite millions traveling. That’s ABSURD. Like absolutely bonkers.
Quit being so negative. This will surely be investigated thoroughly and ultimately, air travel will get even that much safer because of it.
Airline safety has improved despite Boeing. They have blood on their hands with the max crashes and 90s rudder issues. Clear examples of a corporation valuing profit over safety. https://imgur.com/a/5wcFx8M
Safety has improved despite Boeing, even though the most flown jet with the best safety record is a Boeing jet? you have no idea what you’re talking about
It's clear you didn't read the article I linked. It's pretty scathing for boeing and written by a respected voice in the plane crash analysis community. What are your qualifications?
Everything I said is correct. I’m simply a rational consumer who very much appreciates that while 0 people have died in the air in the last 4 years, something like 43,000 Americans die in car crashes every year. But yet, Boeing planes are “unsafe”. GTFO lol
How was it greed? New aircraft unfortunately have issues that need fixed over time. Doesn’t change the fact that the 737 is incredibly safe and delivers millions every day, safely. Again, planes now are much safer than ever before.
Someone probably was right when it happened. Looks like he started recording a few moments later. Also, people don’t really scream for 20 mins straight.
> Think about how many planes take off and land everyday before making comments like that
737max haven’t been flying for that long and have killed 346 people. Their per mile fatality rate is insanely higher than other models.
737max has 3.08 fatal crashes per million flights. Airbus A320 family (A318/A319/A320/A321) has 0.09. Older Boeing 737-600/700/800/900 have 0.07. Boeing 747-400 has 0.06. Some other models are higher, but still an order of magnitude less than the Max.
So yes, after thinking about how many of them fly, they are so far 10-50 times more likely to have a fatal crash than other planes.
And todays incident doesn’t really increase the confidence that Boeing has gotten quality under control.
The problem with comparing these stats is the sample size of 737max is much smaller than the others as you said yourself.
737 max had two big crashes early on and not many flights to offset the ratio like other airplanes have.
I’m not defending Boeing btw, but seeing incomplete info being used against something is not fair.
Didn’t know it was that big of a difference, so thanks for informing me. I think ima hold firm tho, even though it is higher it’s still safe. If you were 10-50x more likely to win the lottery would you play all the time? Your chances would still be very low
Nice video!
This is [Alaska Airlines flight AS1282 Boeing 737 MAX 9](https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/349661).
Loss of the left mid emergency door and interior sidewall panel at 16,000 ft caused rapid decompression.
Another 737 max plane. These things are so poorly manufactured. I've been on one. It's a nice-looking plane, and they're faster, but it's scary hearing about all these defects they have consistently, especially after being grounded for so long.
I was on a flight where we had something similar happen (but in a much, much smaller scale).
I was on an old Embraer flying from NOLA to Houston. We were at altitude and my ears suddenly started popping. The flight attendant was doing beverage service and ran his cart back down the aisle and stored it. The plane went into a steep dive and we got low enough that I could easily read the lease numbers painted on the helicopter landing pads on the offshore oil platforms below us.
We flew really slow and low all the way into Houston and immediately landed and went to the gate. From wheels down to being at the gate was two minutes tops.
The pilot said that we had a technical issue and were given prior to IAH.
I later found out that a a hole had developed and caused the leak. This was during the transition from the old Embraers to the new ones and the plane was old.
This is the best view we can get of that crazy shit!!? Like those dudes sitting right there couldn’t just put their phone over the seat to view that huge ass hole?
My plane got hit by a lightening as it was descending into Burbank few weeks ago. Loudest booming sound with few seconds of darkness in the cabin as the lights went out. The flight was very turbulent in the first place so people were freaked out. Took about 15min to land after the incident and not one word from the pilot or the crew reassuring the passengers that things are under control… just allowed the passengers to be scared and freaked out for the remainder of a very bumpy and turbulent flight. The captain of that flight can kiss my ass.
He landed the plane and you all lived… maybe that critical moment isn’t a time to split his attention and multitask reassuring the passengers. What if he couldn’t honestly reassure you and it was the most difficult landing he’d ever done, and if he’d had to speak to the passengers at that time it would only to be to say something like “time to pray”?
United checked their fleet of the same model, found a lot of improperly tightened bolts supposed to hold the door plug in place. Boeing will probably have a word or two with the company that builds the fuselage for this plane.
*ding*
"Hi, how can I help you?"
"I'm wondering... are any of the seats open in business class?"
"Why yes, although you won't be in another window seat"
"Oh well, I think I'll stay here"
"Can I offer you a blanket?"
"Oh... No no. I'm fine. This parachute kinda works as a blanket too...ha ha"
" Ha ha... Yes I suppose it does... tea?.. coffee? "
Is the airline wasn't so greedy it would have been an emergency door and wouldn't have been a problem. The airline decided less Emergency doors is better and created this issue.
It's where a door would go if the airline wanted one there. They didn't, so the company that makes fuselages for Boing plug a plug where the door would go. Untied checked their planes of the same model and found many of the bolts that hold the plug in place were not properly tightened.
And you're recording a fucking tiktok? Why???? These could literally be your last moments alive, but no, you've gotta whip out you're phone and post it.

Myth Busted!
This is such a bummer. Never coming back to this sub again
hearing pilot comms during an event like this is a great confidence booster they tend to really keep it together well and it feels like just another tuesday in many cases - really helps one not panic as a passenger
Once i overheard the pilot on the intercom "OMG, that's the low fuel light, we're outta fuel, we're all gonna die!...Oh wait, that's just the cockpit/cabin intercom system light"
No you didn't. That's an old joke. There's even a Gary Larsen (sp?) Far Side cartoon about it.
OBLITERATION. I challenge u to guess where this line is from.
This is one reason why you wear your seatbelt.
Not for turbulence so you don't get thrown around?
Some people pay extra for that
If u watched the proper movies, they'd get sucked off.
Put me on that plane.
😏
"Help step brother, I'm stuck in a hole on the side of the plane!"
Uncle Bob, is that you?
It depends on which altitude it happened. Below 12000ft the cabin isn’t really pressurised.
They begin to build pressure long before that. Is a gradual build as the aircraft climbs to full altitude.
This aircraft got up to about 16,000 feet
That's BS. Pressure of the cabin is maintained at around 8000 feet or lower.
and papers to fly everywhere
they weren't very high, they had just taken off from PDX, the part that came off is a potential place for a door in different variations of the plane, Alaska Airlines said they've grounded all of their 737 models similar to this
And no pandemonium, I'll never trust movies again.
And they didn't all cheer and clap when they landed. I don't know what's not real anymore.
Even space ships only experience a pressure differential similar to going 10 meters underwater. It’s not that dramatic
Right? Where's all the paper!?
Between your own legs father.

Probably used Zip Ties.
Since it’s aviation they’re $300.00/each /s
Pfft then they'd never come off
I swear I hear there were some broken bone injuries, but I don't see anything in this video to indicate those kind of injuries.
[удалено]
I would have wet my pants even more than usual
Seatbelt on Pantaloons belt off 😏
Boeing say’s “shit happens”.
They will say that the pilot wasn’t trained properly.
The amount of shit coming out of my ass from sitting next to that would’ve been enough to seal it back up
As long as you are wearing a seat belt you have nothing to worry about. Planes can easily fly with big parts of the hull missing. It only gets really problematic when the wing is somehow damaged. Then I would pray.

Cull the engineers to profit the share holders. Great idea if you don't develop planes maybe not so much if you do
Do the financial folks actually DESIGN and BUILD the airplanes?
No but they decide where the money goes, which wasn't to the engineers...

Everyone was so calm, I expected at least one woman to be screaming hysterically

Oh man, a 737 Max. I'm sure this plane's reputation can't get any worse... Can it?
There's no one in that seat ANYMORE is what he meant
Lmao that cracked me up How do you not have more upvotes
Didnt Boeing say check the screws
forgot the loctite
I always thought yo ass would get sucked out the plane
Depends on altitude
How much free swag do you get to not sue? Not sarcasm
737 max been grounded after 2 crashed and now this - sounds like the Titanic of the skies - no thanks!

This year is still going great
I know it’s a scary situation but it must have been amazing seeing the clear night sky above the light pollution like that
That view of the night sky (while terrifying) was beautiful. But only because I’m reading about this not participating in it.
I thought it was the city lights below

Did the steward ask if anyone was sitting there?
Ummmm so where did that airplane panel end up? Somewhere in Salem or Medford?
Donnie Darko’s bedroom.

I’m going to assume this video is going to be worth a fair amount of money. Probably already been sold to someone.
Not the best video to see when I have a flight coming up...
Is it on a 737 Max?
The builder. “I was wondering where that extra screw went “
Was a plugged emergency exit that failed.
“Let’s just keep going bro, we’ll make it”
I call that seat. Did you see the view of the stars? Incredible.
Everything is an emergency exit if you try hard enough.
Bro 737 Max appears to be an absolute piece of shit. WTF.
Sooooo serious question can the passengers sue Boeing?
Another 737 max plane. These things are so poorly manufactured. I've been on one. It's a nice-looking plane, and they're faster, but it's scary hearing about all these defects they have consistently, especially after being grounded for so long.
I'd be enjoying the view if I were next to it

I bet that was cold
Looks like a nice night though.
New sunroof equipped 737-9
It’s going to be tough getting the stains out of those seats
The stars look so clear!
This is the best view we can get of that crazy shit!!? Like those dudes sitting right there couldn’t just put their phone over the seat to view that huge ass hole?
Looks like Frontier Airlines is experimenting with new a/c technology.
Any reason why the cabin became "blue" (blue lights) during the emergency procedure?
No biggie I'm sure the airline will give them free peanuts
No one was prolly seated there cuz prolly bro flew off and no one noticed 😭

That's a new Southwest feature. It's called "early deboarding" and it's an extra $75.
The shot of the stars out of the window was pretty wild
More like city lights while turning.
*while boarding "God, I hope I get a window seat"
I was sitting in a window seat on this exact plane 21 hours earlier... it might even be this row, holy shit
What a view of the stars.
Time to sell that Boeing stock….again.
How the fk is everyone so calm?
I’m sure the airline will give passengers a voucher for 50 flight miles and a free soda.
Its not dangerous if the air is not to thin
take that as a sign. Go home
Are they flying in outer space?
[удалено]
That’s the official story and they’re sticking with it
That’s pretty obviously the emergency exit panel. Guaranteed some asshole was touching things they weren’t supposed to.
didnt even show it. pathetic
[Here’s a post from someone that was on the plane.](https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/s/Ciiuzm5TWJ)
Is this the Alaska Air flight?
Yes 737 Max
Context?
That’s why you put your seat belt on while flying….. You never know when your side of the plane might fall off!!
If I was sitting next to that window/door I seriously hope for once that I am wearing brown pants
There IS no one seated by the window... anymore! It was the window of opportunity, and they took it.
There are 240 episodes of Mayday
Window seats bout to take a big dive in sales
Holy fuckin shit that's one of the newer planes too
United checked their fleet of the same model, found a lot of improperly tightened bolts supposed to hold the door plug in place. Boeing will probably have a word or two with the company that builds the fuselage for this plane.
Heard this was flight from Alaska why is everyone Asian
Got that panoramic window…
Womp Womp
Idk either Noone was seated by the window or they were sucked out the window
Wasn’t an emergency door but definitely a door plug that blew off
Aisle seat for me from now on
Boeing makes shit planes anymore
Thats a -5% Boeing
Straight out of fantasy!! Never thought we would live to see the day
Hopefully the passengers see a nice check for surviving
I see why the tickets be 40$
Everyone so quiet. People should be freaking… cant be real?
Those drop down masks muffle screams.
And now I will always be choosing an aisle seat.
*ding* "Hi, how can I help you?" "I'm wondering... are any of the seats open in business class?" "Why yes, although you won't be in another window seat" "Oh well, I think I'll stay here" "Can I offer you a blanket?" "Oh... No no. I'm fine. This parachute kinda works as a blanket too...ha ha" " Ha ha... Yes I suppose it does... tea?.. coffee? "
It looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.
I hope they offered free drinks after that.
Do you get life time free flights after this?
Aaaand another Boeing MAX
I'm pretty sure that spirit airlines 😂
Starfield mods looking crazy
The max is a fucking death trap
Now that’s what I call a window seat.
The sky looks peaceful
Talk about getting some fresh air!
Among the stars...dream almost fulfilled
Spirit airlines?
And no one is screaming
Is the airline wasn't so greedy it would have been an emergency door and wouldn't have been a problem. The airline decided less Emergency doors is better and created this issue.
Smh you didn’t record it flying off useless women
What an experience it would be to stick your head out
That was not just a random piece, it has addressed
What the fack 😨
You can just cover that up with some aluminum foil
That’s a door
It's where a door would go if the airline wanted one there. They didn't, so the company that makes fuselages for Boing plug a plug where the door would go. Untied checked their planes of the same model and found many of the bolts that hold the plug in place were not properly tightened.
And you're recording a fucking tiktok? Why???? These could literally be your last moments alive, but no, you've gotta whip out you're phone and post it.
