New York CNN —The grounding of the 737 Max 9 after a January 5 incident that blew a hole in the side of an Alaska Airlines plane earlier this month will cost the airline about $150 million, Alaska announced Thursday. The door plug blew off an Alaska Airlines flight on January 5, leaving a gaping hole in the side of the plane. While no passengers were killed, the incident led the Federal Aviation Administration to order a grounding of all 737 Max 9 jets. Alaska Airlines CEO Ben Minicucci told NBC in an interview Tuesday that the carrier found “some loose bolts on many” Boeing 737 Max 9 during its inspections. Alaska and United are the only US airlines with the 737 Max 9 jet in their fleets.

☆ Southwest Airlines takes Boeing Max 7 out of 2024 plans because of certification delays
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-25 | by ( Leslie Josephs | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Southwest Airlines has taken the Boeing 737 Max 7 out of its fleet plans as regulators haven't yet certified the smallest model of the manufacturer's best-selling plane. Southwest became the latest of the major airlines this week to rethink its fleet plans because of certification delays at Boeing. Earlier this week, United Airlines said it was removing the the 737 Max 10, the largest model of the Max family, from its internal fleet plans after delays with certification. Scrutiny on Boeing has mounted in recent weeks after a door panel blew out midflight from a 737 Max 9 that was operated by Alaska Airlines on Jan. 5, prompting the FAA to ground that model. FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker told CNBC earlier this week that even before the Alaska Airlines incident, the agency had concluded it needed a more "hands-on approach" with the certification of the Max 7 and Max 10 aircraft.

Alaska Airlines plans to resume flights with its Max 9s on Friday, and United aims to follow suit on Sunday. United Airlines made similar similar findings. Travelers returned to the Boeing 737 Max 8 after two of them crashed in 2018 and 2019, killing 346 people. In that case, Boeing had to redesign an automated flight-control system before the FAA would let Max 8s and Max 9s resume flying after a 20-month grounding. In addition, the FAA says it won't let Boeing expand production of Max jets until it's satisfied that quality-control concerns about the company have been resolved.

According to Reuters, United Airlines — the biggest operator of the Max 9 with 79 of them — said it will start flying the jet again from Sunday. "It makes me angry," Alaska Airlines CEO Ben Minicucci told NBC. Not all the Max 9 jets will immediately return to service because some haven't been through the full inspection process yet. Alaska Airlines expects all its inspections to be completed over the next week.

Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems are under multiple investigations that probe their safety policies and procedures. Boeing said it couldn’t comment on the reports about what may have led to the door plug blowing off the plane, citing the ongoing investigation. The process also includes tightening fasteners and performing “detailed inspections of…dozens of associated components.”FAA on Sunday also required airlines to ensure older Boeing 737 planes with similar door plugs were secure. The FAA said airlines operating the Boeing 737-900ER model should visually inspect the planes but didn’t require them to be grounded. Two Max variants — the Max 7 and the Max 10 — are still awaiting approval to begin carrying passengers.

The FAA subsequently grounded all models of the Boeing 737 Max 9 after the incident, leading to flight cancellations and frustration among airline executives. "Let me be clear: This won't be back to business as usual for Boeing," FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker said in a Wednesday statement. The agency has halted all further expansion production on Boeing 737 Max 9s until it is "satisfied" that the aircraft's quality control issues are resolved. In-house safety inspections of Alaska Airlines's fleet of Boeing 737 Max 9s following the initial incident revealed that there were "many" loose bolts found on the jets. The FAA's new safety guidelines for the 737 Max 9s come after a review of data stemming from 40 inspections of the grounded planes, the agency said.

Southwest also said Thursday that it expects to receive fewer new planes than it expected this year because of ongoing production problems at Boeing. American said Thursday that it earned $19 million in the fourth quarter, down from $803 million a year earlier. Analysts expected American Airlines Group Inc. to earn 11 cents per share, according to a FactSet survey. Wall Street expected Southwest Airlines Co. to earn 12 cents per share. Earlier this week, United said it expects to lose money in the first quarter because of the grounding.

Alaska Airlines N704AL is seen grounded in a hangar at Portland International Airport in Portland, Oregon, on Jan. 9, 2024. The Federal Aviation Administration on Wednesday halted Boeing 's planned expansion of its 737 Max aircraft production, but it cleared a path for the manufacturer's Max 9 to return to service nearly three weeks after a door plug blew out during an Alaska Airlines flight. "Let me be clear: This won't be back to business as usual for Boeing," said FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker in a statement Wednesday. The grounding forced United Airlines and Alaska Airlines, the two U.S. airlines with the planes, to cancel hundreds of flights. The FAA is investigating Boeing's production lines after the Alaska flight.

The official, Mike Whitaker, said the FAA would not agree to any Boeing request to expand production of Max planes until the agency is satisfied that quality-control concerns have been addressed. The move came on the same day that a key senator indicated that Congress will join the scrutiny of Boeing. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the accident on an Alaska Airlines Max 9. Investigators are building a timeline of the door plug that failed, from the early stages of its production to the flight on which it blew off the plane. The Federal Aviation Administration is looking into whether Boeing and its suppliers followed proper safety procedures during manufacturing.

☆ Grounded Boeing Max 9 Jets Could Resume Flying Within Days

Federal regulators on Wednesday cleared the way for Boeing 737 Max 9 jets to fly again — but also said they would put new limits on production of the troubled planes. The Federal Aviation Administration grounded about 170 Max 9 planes on Jan. 6 after a body panel detached from an Alaska Airlines Max 9 minutes after the flight took off from Portland, Ore., leaving a gaping hole in the side of the jet. On Wednesday, the agency approved a set of inspection and maintenance procedures and said airlines could resume flying the jets once the checks were complete. The process includes requiring airlines to inspect certain bolts and fasteners and to re-torque fasteners on the panel, known as a door plug, which is placed where an emergency exit door would be if a jet had more seats. United Airlines said that it would begin inspecting its 79 Max 9 planes under the new guidelines and that it expected to start using them again on flights on Sunday.

"Until we're comfortable that the [quality assurance] system is working properly ... we're going to have boots on the ground," he said. United, which has 79 Boeing 737 Max 9 planes in its fleet, more than any other carrier, said Monday it's assuming the planes will remain grounded through the end of January. He said United is taking the larger variant, the 737 Max 10, out of its fleet plans, because of lengthy delivery delays. Those accidents involved the 737 Max 8, a smaller variant of the same aircraft family.

New York CNN —Boeing CEO David Calhoun’s Wednesday was decidedly a mixed bag: The Federal Aviation Administration finally approved a set of inspection criteria for the 171 grounded 737 Max 9 planes that, if followed, could return the aircraft to service. And the FAA said it would not grant any production expansion of the 737 Max lineup while its safety probe of Boeing continues. “We fly safe planes,” Calhoun said to reporters assembled on Capitol Hill. A week earlier, Calhoun acknowledged the company made a “mistake” at a staff-wide safety meeting, but he did not specify what that mistake was. Two Max variants — the Max 7 and the Max 10 — are still awaiting approval to begin carrying passengers.

ATLANTA (AP) — An attempt to state that Georgia's appointed State Election Board has the legal power to investigate Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's handling of elections blossomed into a constitutional showdown Tuesday, with a lawyer for Raffensperger saying board members can't legally oversee him. “We’re looking to empower the State Election Board so that they can have oversight responsibility and that there’s no confusion about where that oversight responsibility is vested,” said Ethics Committee Chairman Max Burns, a Sylvania Republican. Activists have been pushing the State Election Board to investigate whether Raffensperger mishandled his audit of Fulton County's 2020 results, motivated by unproven claims of fraud. The board deadlocked 2-2 in December on whether it had such authority, and two board members asked lawmakers to clarify the law. Supporters said they can go forward because most of Raffensperger's election responsibilities are outlined in state law, not the Georgia Constitution.
