Read previewFrom a missing panel to a tire falling off midair, United Airlines has experienced multiple high-profile safety incidents over the past few weeks. Instead, some aviation experts have pointed to a possible trend in United's maintenance safety systems. Regarding the missing panel, he said, "that smacks of a maintenance problem of United Airlines." Former Delta Air Lines chief pilot, Alan Price, noted safety redundancies in some events played out as they were designed to. Kirby said safety enhancements like an extra day of pilot training and a "centralized training curriculum" for new-hire mechanics, which were planned before the recent safety events, are actively being deployed.
