The National Transportation Safety Board said Boeing “blatantly violated” regulations by providing investigative information to the media and speculating about causes of the Jan. 5 door plug blowout on a 737 Max 9 in Portland.
NTSB sanctions Boeing for publicizing details about investigation of Alaska Airlines door plug blowoutA gaping hole opened after the blowout of a paneled-over door plug on Alaska Airlines Flight 1282, Jan. 7, 2024, in Portland, Ore.
The NTSB said that on Tuesday during a media briefing, a Boeing executive provided non-public investigative information to the media about the Alaska Airlines incident that the agency had not verified or authorized for release. The NTSB said that Boeing portrayed the NTSB’s investigation as a search to find the individual responsible for the door plug work, but the agency said it’s focused on the probable cause of the accident, not placing blame on any individual or assessing liability.
The NTSB is unable to fine Boeing, as it doesn’t have enforcement authority. While the agency could have stripped away Boeing’s party status, the NTSB may have considered it more important to keep Boeing as a party to the investigation because of its employees’ expertise.The NTSB said that it may subpoena any relevant records it requires during the course of the investigation. It also will subpoena Boeing to appear at an investigative hearing in Washington D.C. on Aug. 6 and 7.
