TL;DR Summary

Alaska Airlines' decision not to ground a Boeing 737 Max 9 despite warning signs from a cabin-pressurization system is under scrutiny after a terrifying fuselage blowout during a flight. The airline had stopped flying the plane over water due to the warnings but continued to operate it over land. The FAA grounded all Max 9s for inspection, and United Airlines found installation issues on door plugs. Experts question the decision not to ground the plane, while others believe it may have averted a disaster. The NTSB is investigating the incident, and Boeing has pledged to address any findings from airline inspections.
