"Boeing 737 Max Grounded After Door Incident and Emergency Landings Rattle Alaska Airlines Flights"

The FAA has grounded Boeing 737 Max 9 planes for inspections after an Alaska Airlines flight had to make an emergency landing due to a door blowing off, causing rapid decompression. The incident occurred shortly after takeoff from Portland, Oregon, with no serious injuries reported among the 171 passengers and crew. The NTSB is investigating the accident, which could have been more tragic had the plane reached a higher altitude. The directive affects 171 aircraft globally, and the specific plane involved was delivered by Boeing in October.
