These door "plugs" are secured with latches and bolts to secure them. The latches require moving the door up and out and then swing them down for inspections, or to switch them out for actual exit doors in the even the seating arrangement changes. There are 4 bolts that are inserted into the latches, torqued and have castle nuts that are then wired so that they cannot unscrew on their own. This has every indication that the bolts were missing since the latches are still in the frame, and the lower hinges that allow the door to move up and down are still intact. The maintenance crew never would have even considered this to be the issue with the pressurization warnings since these bolts are installed at the factory before the interior panels are installed. It takes 8-10 hours to remove the interior panels to inspect the bolts, something that is done at regular intervals during the planes life, but not during the first few months of service. Boeing and the spin off where the fuse is built will take the hit for this, not the airline.

I’m a B737 mechanic (but not MAX) and the video title is what’s the problem. It misleads the viewer into thinking the guest is saying the plug door ejecting from the jet is “not unusual” and that’s NOT what she’s saying. The pilot is saying that airlines often write up and defer maintenance items via the Minimum Equipment List or MEL, and that’s completely correct. We often have to defer issues if it can be done safely. That is pretty much SOP - standard operating procedure. And if a pilot disagrees with taking a jet with deferred maintenance item, he/she can refuse to accept the jet and they have union protection in that case.

I believe there is a high probability that the door plug was moving enough during the earlier flights to cause the cabin pressure warning system to trigger but not enough to blow out. From what I have seen on the plug design, the door plug would have to move up between 2 and 3 inches to clear the horizontal top pins that the door needs to be held in place. In order for this door to move up, bolts that are in place to prevent the door from moving up were either not there or they loosened and fell out. If they loosened and fell out, this would indicate that the castle nuts were not cotter pinned. There are four bolts in total and if one top bolt fell out first, the door could potentially vibrate enough to cause the other top bolt to fall out. If one fell out first, this would be enough to trigger the depressurization lights in the cockpit. When the second one fell out, the forces likely caused the door to move up enough to shear the bottom bolts in the hinge pins that would be in place allowing the door to move up just enough then cabin pressure would force it the rest of the way and then outside air would catch the door and rip it fully off. This is assuming the bottom bolts were in place. The only other plausible explanation is that the shear strength of the bolts was totally inadequate for the pressure/wind load on the plug. With reports of loose bolts on other planes, I suspect this was an installation issue where the bolts were not properly torqued initially and then vibration caused the cotter pins to weaken and break thus allowing the castle nuts to rotate off and the bolts to fall out. The up and out motion of this would have been swift once the forces took over from the static installed position of the plug. As far as this is unusual, this will end up showing the swiss cheese model of failure that lead to this failure and not anything typical. There are enough Boeing employee comments about having to work long hours and rushing the work to get orders completed that could affect final quality that may end up being the cause. First steps will be to understand the engineering of the setup overall of the door plug itself to the bolt, nut and cotter pin specs, installation steps, torque specs and working conditions. If torque specs were inadequate, that would be the first issue for example. Next would be resetting the warning lights without knowing the cause. Thankfully, they did restrict the plane from flying over water where they could not easily land due to the suspect depressurization. Finally, the last part of the result will be about not taking this plane out of service after 2 consecutive depressurization warnings due to the financial cost of taking a plane out of service. This will be another Boeing fiasco that fortunately get corrected without fatalities. They will definitely need to refocus on working conditions and inspections. There may be wear/scratches on the hardware that would indicate how this was occurring. Likely, where the ears fit over the stops is were the most evidence will show up as this is the point were the movement would create the wear. The second place will be those bottom hinges/pins that were dangling from the bottom of the opening. There should be marks there that the bottom bolts should have created if they existed. Also, on the plug itself there should be significant marks where the bolts, castle nuts and cotter pins should have existed. It probably will not be that tough of an investigation as there will be good solid evidence of what happened.

@@florencioigual if I may add. When there is any potential for a plane catastrophe, being over water or land is not going to matter with the out come. Once Alaska knew there were some issues prior to Friday, that plane should have been grounded to allow for a more in depth assessment and perhaps reaching out to Boeing technical support group (this communication happens all the time) to further address and take the proper action. The fact that Alaska knowingly allowed this plane to continue to fly even if not over water, it was negligent on their part. Issues with “all” plane manufacturers must be addressed and corrected with as little risk to humans, but airlines must do their part, but unfortunately grounding an aircraft is a bad for the business. It appears that once again this incident has room for a lot of improvement opportunities for all.

If you had any knowledge of what you are talking about you would not have posted. A pressurization light in the cockpit tells the crew there is a "possible" problem with the cabin pressure. There are two computers that are independent of one another that monitor this. IF one fails the light comes on, if the other one happens to fail the light comes on. The crew then has to monitor and adjust the cabin pressure manually in the cockpit. It's called a triple redundant system...three separate systems. A shorted wire, bad light socket or bulb can cause that light to come on. Notice, this has NOTHING to do with that door with the exception if it was leaking profusely which would be extremely hard/impossible for maintenance to prove being that testing on the ground is nothing like a flight simulation. Hopefully this answers some of your comments intelligently.

These door plugs are evidently designed to burst during depressurization. Other burst panels in more discrete locations are designed into the airplane. In this case, Boeing failed to notify operators about this design feature which places a sacrificial plug directly next to passengers probably not buckled into their seats. Also, the FAA either did not know about this or mandate notification. Seems like criminal negligence by both Boeing and the FAA. The certification system has to change.

When shift ends, the workers drop everything and head home.
