  1. 2 years ago, Jan 5, 2024: Alaska Airlines #AS1282 experienced an in-flight blowout of a door plug on climbout from Portland #KPDX. It returned safely to PDX. But the plane has so far never flown again. Alaska made Boeing buy it back, obviously being defective.

    I got this picture this afternoon during a bicycle ride. N704AL is parked on the Boeing ramp by the paint hangar. Plastic sheeting still covers where the door plug has not been replaced. #aviation #business #travel #avgeek #history #TDIH
