NTSB

Boeing’s leadership team must continue to ask the hard questions and look further to honestly assess company culture that could contribute to future problems.

Investigators are still working to piece together what happened to the Boeing 737-9 in the weeks leading up to its delivery to Alaska.

Investigators determined the door plug was not opened between the airplane’s Oct. 31, 2023, delivery to Alaska Airlines and the accident flight.

An event-saturated January followed a year not short on its own challenges, and during recent earnings calls airlines projected which issues might spill over.

Boeing’s biggest problem is restoring trust.

Investigators are examining an engine fire on an Atlas Air Boeing 747-8F that had to return to Miami International Airport shortly after takeoff on Jan. 18.

After a week of precautionary checks after the Alaska Airlines accident, the Indonesian Transport Ministry has allowed Lion Air's Boeing 737-9s to resume service.

Neither the FAA nor Boeing will discuss the process or speculate on how long the inspection review will take.

Problematic Spirit AeroSystems-supplied 737-9 panels evaded Boeing quality checks and may have caused a Jan. 5 Alaska Airlines accident.

“We’re not going to point fingers,” the Boeing CEO said. “Because, yes, it escaped their factory; but then it escaped ours too. So, we’re all in this together.”

Figuring out what happened with four bolts on the Alaska Airlines accident flight 737 MAX is emerging as a key task in NTSB's probe.

FAA said there are 171 Boeing 737-9s worldwide with the panel-like plug configuration under scrutiny.

NTSB reports that the door "plug" which detached from an Alaska Airlines 737 MAX 9 during a mid-air incident Jan. 5 has now been found.

Investigators detail systemic weaknesses and questionable assumptions as likely contributors to a near-collision between a FedEx Boeing 767 and a Southwest 737.

Readers write about the Nov. 13 and Nov. 27 covers, U.S. Navy’s E-2 Hawkeyes and the need for better bladeout safety.

The January 2022 incident occurred at Yampa Valley Airport, Colorado, which has one runway and no control tower.

The process will mandate nacelle design changes on the Boeing 737NG fleet that were prompted by a fatal accident and a related NTSB recommendation.

The FAA has agreed to a pair of recommendations from a GAO audit concerning current procedures for investigating commercial space mishaps.

The new year will bring new certification protocols and at least one draft rule that will affect how the FAA approves new designs.

Assumptions about how quickly a Southwest flight would take off when cleared to go in front of an arriving FedEx flight are a key factor in a close call.

The FAA now plans to issue a draft rule codifying new requirements for manufacturers to disclose safety-critical information during certification in 2024.

A shocking accident fatal to six has prompted collective action by owner-pilots to prevent a recurrence.

The FAA is changing how manufacturers demonstrate engines and nacelles can adequately withstand failures, but the process will take time.

The agency has given Boeing seven years to ensure new nacelle design is installed on the 737 Next Generation fleet.

NTSB engineers investigating the crash of Cape Air Flight 2072 calculated that if the pilot had maintained the same level of deceleration while remaining on the ground, the aircraft probably would have experienced little or no damage.
