So we can't blame this on a passenger trying to open the door? Crazy. This is a bigger problem than I thought
It doesn't work like that.

AS grounds their fleet of MAX9s...

Why not just cancel their orders of this s#!+ product?
Put in an order for some A220-300s since they just sold AAL their only 10 321NEOs.

It is a place for a door on aircraft configured for enough seats to require another door to meet evacuation criteria. But from the inside it looks like just another side of the aircraft with a window in it. It was an almost new aircraft and you have to wonder if the opening wasn't used by the people installing the interior and then not sufficiently secured before the paneling was put in place concealing it...

Nominal service ceiling is FL410. Not saying it gets there very often...

Atlas pilot here. We just had a 777 need to shutdown on engine on the f’ing delivery flight from PAE! Come on Boeing. You’ve got to do better!
Boeing doesn’t make engines. Blame (insert 777 engine manufacturer here).

Well, doesn't look all that permanent.
