Removed from the cabin because of that pressure. it s incredibly dangerous and not something investigators will be downplaying. it is testament to the crew and the flight crew they are able to return safely, and of course they were quite lucky nobody was sat in the initial window seat right next to the panel where it had become separated from the aircraft. i will just add that typically in air travel, that seat is quite sought after because it has extra legroom because typically it would house an emergency exit. so it is pretty unprecedented stuff. mex. emergency exit. 50 it is pretty unprecedented stuff. alex macheras there. now unprecedented stuff. alex macheras there- now to unprecedented stuff. alex macheras there. now to the unprecedented stuff. alex macheras there. now to the situation - unprecedented stuff. alex macheras there. now to the situation in - unprecedented stuff. alex macheras there. now to the situation in the i there. now to the situation in the middle east. the ....
The worldwide grounding and ban of this aircraft which lasted almost two years because investigation is concluded that there was something fundamentally wrong with one of these systems on board the aircraft, known as mcas and so boeing were forced to reassess how they were going to recertify that aircraft and get it back into the sky. the aircraft did return back into the skies, it is fly now globally. alaska airlines in one of the carriers that have around 65 of these aircraft but to see something like an entire side wall panel of an aircraft become separated while airborne is not something that we see in commercial air travel, not least in recent history of air travel and that is why investigators and bureaus will be scamming to work out how this happened, not least because it is at 737 max and this is an aircraft that has been under close scrutiny since those two accidents of years ago. we ....
