Southwest Airlines Issues Statement on the Incident
"Our Customers will arrive at Houston Hobby on another aircraft, approximately three hours behind schedule," Southwest said in the statement. "We apologize for the inconvenience of their delay, but place our highest priority on ultimate safety for our customers and employees."
Boeing Inspections?
After an incident with a door flying off a plane mid flight, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grounded all Boeing 737 planes and told airlines that each Boeing 737 plane has to undergo an eight hour inspection before being allowed to fly again. If this plane just had an inspection in the past few months, maybe even weeks. Something like this should not be happening.
The FAA has opened another investigation into this Boeing aircraft to try to determine how this happened. We will wait and see what happens with this latest case.
