The Federal Aviation Administration has ordered the "temporary grounding" of 171 Boeing 737 Max 9 airplanes this morning after a section of fuselage separated from the side of an Alaska Airlines flight on Friday, leaving a gaping hole in the plane.

Flight 1282 from Portland International Airport had made an emergency landing back at the same airport just 20 minutes later because of a "pressurization issue" that resulted in a wall of the plane blowing out.

Yesterday, The Seattle Times reported that Boeing had petitioned the FAA for a safety exemption for the 737 Max 7, a smaller plane the agency hasn't certified yet. The plane apparently has a defect that could cause an engine nacelle to break up.

It's no surprise Boeing has such disregard for passenger and crew safety. It is amazing they are allowed to keep getting away with it.

While supplies last.
