The article has a truth problem, and little credibility as a result, but while Duckworth's comments are pure drama sky-is-falling bull ****, Boeings effort to address a nacelle overheat is likewise problematic: Boeing's intended exemption was to simply put a limitation in the flight manual requiring pilots to shut off nacelle heat after five minutes (in icing conditions). After it becamse a public issue, Boeing elected to fall back to engineer a solution.

The article's comment regarding the Ethiopan max loss is wrong, as it the assertion that the recent plug loss was a "door" that "fell off." Further, the Alaska plug loss was not a case of "the fuselage broke." It's hard to take reporting seriously when it's that flawed.
