"Blow Out" is a 1982 thriller from Brian De Palma. The idea was inspired by "Blow Up" where a photographer accidentally took a picture of a murder. Here we have a sound technician recording wind for a film (within the film) who captures an accident. Or was it an accident? It's a pretty faithful homage in spirit, although the story's expanded and with more characters. There was some silliness by today's standards but generally it's a solid position.

Security footage of #Boeing repair before door-plug #blowout was overwritten

NTSB: Boeing is "unable to find the records documenting" repair work on 737 Max 9.

"To date, we still do not know who performed the work to open, reinstall, and close the #door #plug on the accident aircraft," NTSB Chair #Jennifer #Homendy wrote Wednesday in a letter to leaders of the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee.

"Boeing has informed us that they are unable to find the records documenting this work. A verbal request was made by our investigators for #security #camera #footage to help obtain this information;
however, they were informed the footage was #overwritten.
The absence of those records will complicate the NTSB's investigation moving forward."
