TL;DR

Boeing removed the head of its 737 Max program, Ed Clark, following ongoing safety incidents, including a midair blowout and a recent door plug issue. The National Transportation Safety Board found that missing bolts caused the door plug to blow out on a Boeing 737 Max flown by Alaska Airlines. Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun took responsibility for the incident, and the company announced a shuffling of executives in its Boeing Commercial Airplanes unit. The problems have also led to the postponement of certification for new versions of the jet, and the CEOs of major Boeing customers have expressed doubts about receiving their orders anytime soon.
