"Boeing 737 Max Under Scrutiny Following Alaska Airlines Mid-Air Incident"

Boeing's 737 Max faces renewed safety concerns after an Alaska Airlines Max 9 experienced a window blowout, leading to the FAA ordering immediate inspections of certain Max 9 planes. The incident, which caused no injuries, resulted in Alaska Airlines grounding its fleet of Max 9s and canceling flights. The FAA and NTSB are investigating, while Boeing supports the inspections and provides technical assistance. The brand's reputation may be further impacted depending on the cause of the blowout, with past scrutiny over the Max's design and certification process following two fatal crashes. Boeing has faced significant financial and reputational costs due to these issues.
