A United Airlines flight from San Francisco to Oregon landed without a panel on Friday - two months after an incident which prompted investigations into Boeing's safety and quality standards in its production process.
US air safety officials are investigating a Boeing 737-800 plane that was missing a panel when the United Airlines flight landed on Friday. The Federal Aviation Authority is probing United Airlines Flight 433, which left San Francisco and landed in Oregon on Friday. It was carrying 139 passengers and six crew members. Amber Judd, director at Rogue Valley International Medford Airport, said the plane landed safely and the external panel was discovered missing during a post-flight inspection.
Friday's incident is the latest in a series of problems for Boeing, which has resulted in investigations into the company's safety and quality standards in its production process. In January, a panel that plugged a space left for an extra emergency door blew off a Boeing MAX 9 jet in mid-air just minutes after take-off, leaving a gaping hole and forcing pilots to make an emergency landing. There were no serious injuries. The US Department of Justice has launched a criminal investigation.
