"Boeing's CEO Unable to Provide Key Information in Door Plug Blowout Investigation"

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is facing challenges in its investigation into the January 5 accident involving a Boeing 737 Max 9 operated by Alaska Airlines, as Boeing's CEO stated that the company has no records of who worked on the panel that blew off the jetliner. This lack of records is complicating the NTSB's investigation, and despite Boeing providing names of 25 employees who work on doors at the company's 737 factory, it has not disclosed which worker removed the panel. NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy expressed concerns that the focus on identifying specific workers could discourage people from cooperating with investigators.
