Boeing has been dominating headlines lately, causing increased anxiety among air travelers. The renowned American aircraft manufacturer is facing significant challenges, starting with a door malfunction on Alaska Airlines Flight 1282. This, coupled with other incidents, has raised serious concerns about the safety of Boeing aircraft, particularly following the tragic crashes involving two 737 Max planes in 2018 and 2019.
Just a fortnight ago, Boeing's CEO announced his forthcoming resignation. However, the company continues to generate buzz in the news, most recently on April 7th, when an engine cover detached mid-takeoff on a flight carrying 138 passengers.
