"Boeing 737 Max: Latest Quality Glitch Causes Delivery Delays"

TL;DR Summary
Boeing has delayed the delivery of 50 of its 737s due to a new 'non-conformance' issue discovered at its Renton facility, following a previous halt in production to address a MAX-9 door plug blowout. The company informed employees about the latest issue in an internal memo, stating that all fuselages at the facility will be inspected before the delay is over. While the issue is not an immediate flight safety concern, rework will be required on the affected airplanes, and the company is dedicating several days to address the issue.
