A fuselage part of a Boeing 737 Max 9 came off in flight and the US aviation authority ordered a flight ban for all identical models. Of the 144 aircraft affected in the United States, 135 were inspected and returned to service.
The aircraft manufacturer Boeing has been increasingly criticized since the near-miss. The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had previously banned Boeing from expanding production of the aircraft. The delivery of 50 aircraft of this type will be delayed due to two incorrectly drilled holes in some fuselages.
