PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A “whistling sound” was heard on a previous flight of the Boeing 737 Max 9 whose door plug blew out during an Alaska Airlines flight last month, an attorney representing passengers in a lawsuit said in new court documents.
On Wednesday, he filed an amended complaint that adds 18 additional passenger plaintiffs and includes the new allegations concerning the previous flight.
He did not specify who they were and declined to confirm whether they were passengers or crew members on the previous flight.
He also declined to specify when the previous flight occurred.
She cautioned, however, that the pressurization light might be unrelated to the door plug blowout.
