TL;DR

The piece that blew off an Alaska Airlines 737 MAX 9 jet was improperly installed by Boeing mechanics in Renton, not by its supplier Spirit AeroSystems. If verified by the National Transportation Safety Board investigation, this would place primary fault on Boeing for the incident, drawing renewed criticism of its quality control systems and safety culture.
