Boeing's quality control draws criticism as a whistleblower alleges lapses at factory

Alaska Airlines N704AL, a 737 Max 9, which made an emergency landing at Portland International Airport on January 5 is parked at a maintenance hanger in Portland, Ore. on January 23, 2024. One of two door plugs on the emergency exit door blew out shortly after the plane took off from Portland.

Concerns over quality control at Boeing's factory are mounting after this month's door plug blowout on a 737 Max 9. New revelations from an alleged whistleblower suggest Boeing could be at fault.
