"Alaska Airlines Discovers Loose Bolts on Boeing 737 Max 9s, Boeing Issues Quality Check Memo"

Alaska Airlines discovered "many" loose bolts during inspections of its Boeing 737 Max 9 fleet following a near-disaster incident. The FAA issued an Emergency Airworthiness Directive grounding certain 737 Max 9s, and is auditing Boeing's production line. United Airlines is reconsidering its order for 277 737 Max 10s due to the Max grounding. Boeing's troubles are attributed to a new management culture focused on cost-cutting, and the 737 Max's design issues were highlighted after fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019.
