The aircraft slowed safely and stopped on the runway for an inspection by emergency services. The crew advised there had been a bird strike. Following the inspection the aircraft taxied to the apron. A replacement Boeing 737-8 MAX, registration G-TUMM reached Arrecife the following day with a delay of about 15:45 hours. The occurrence aircraft returned to service about 13 hours after the rejected takeoff. https://avherald.com/h?article=51ce558c&opt=0 A key Boeing mechanic who worked on 737 Max doors was on vacation on 2 critical days before the Alaska Airlines blowout One Boeing mechanic was usually the only one who worked on door plugs, he told NTSB investigators. The 35-year veteran was on vacation during critical work on the Alaska Airlines 737 Max. A trainee with limited experience filled in, according to NTSB transcripts. A Boeing mechanic who was usually the only one to work on door plugs was on vacation on two days that later proved critical to the Alaska Airlines blowout. That's according to a transcript of the mechanic's interview with investigators published by the National Transportation Safety Board. The Seattle Times first reported the detail. The mechanic has worked for Boeing for 35 years and on Boeing 737 doors since 1999. He told investigators he was part of a team of about 20 people, and said: "I think I'm the only one that can work on all the doors." On January 5, an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max was at an altitude of 16,000 feet when it lost a door plug — a fuselage panel that covers a deactivated emergency exit. The plane, delivered just 66 days earlier, left Boeing's factory missing key bolts designed to secure the door plug, the NTSB said in its preliminary report. The jet was first worked on by Spirit AeroSystems before arriving at Boeing's plant in Renton, Washington. Workers then found damaged rivets near the door plug, so it had to be opened to replace the rivets. NTSB photo shows missing bolts from Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max plane Photos from the NTSB report show the five damaged rivets, and one in close-up.Boeing via NTSB On September 18, 2023, the day this work took place, the veteran mechanic was on vacation, The Seattle Times reported. According to transcripts, the employee who filled in for the veteran mechanic was a trainee who had worked at Boeing for 17 months. He told investigators his only previous jobs were at KFC and Taco Bell. The door plug was then closed by another worker. "I think somebody that was asked to do it that didn't really know that they were doing," the veteran mechanic told investigators. No record of the door plug's opening and closing was entered into the system, so no quality inspection was conducted. Boeing's Renton factory door team appeared to often face pressure. In the past three years, the veteran mechanic said he had about 15 managers. At the end of his interview, he added: "The only thing I don't understand about the whole thing is, how come our shop wasn't contacted to open the plug? Usually, when something like that happens, I get asked to do that." The veteran mechanic then confirmed that he was on vacation at the time. Boeing did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, made outside normal working hours. https://www.yahoo.com/news/key-boeing-mechanic-worked-737-113041593.html Alaska Airlines flight forced to turn around after Boeing 737 engine fails midair A Boeing 737 had to turn around after one of its main engines failed midair. The Alaska Airlines flight landed safely in Seattle. The incident comes as Boeing faces mounting scrutiny over a barrage of safety issues. Boeing's bad year isn't over yet. According to the Federal Aviation Administration, an Alaska Airlines-operated Boeing 737-700 was forced to turn around on Sunday after one of its engines failed midair. The government agency said the Oakland-bound plane departed Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on Sunday afternoon but soon had to turn back after the crew reported a possible engine issue. An Alaska spokesperson told Business Insider that the Boeing 737's left engine failed soon after taking off. Alaska Airlines Flight 1240 turned around and landed safely at Sea-Tac around 1:30 p.m. local time, according to the FAA, which said it would investigate the incident. "Credit to the crew for following standard procedures for this situation and landing safely and without incident," the Alaska spokesperson said. "We worked to take care of our guests and accommodate their travel to Oakland yesterday afternoon, and we apologize for the inconvenience." A passenger on board told local news outlet Kiro 7 that the engine failure was terrifying but applauded the pilots for handling the situation. Boeing did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI. The incident comes as Boeing faces mounting scrutiny over a barrage of mechanical issues. In January, an Alaska Airline Boeing 737 Max 9 was forced to make an emergency landing after a door panel detached mid-flight, leaving a gaping hole in the aircraft thousands of feet in the air. Aviation regulators have opened probes into at least six incidents involving Boeing planes, The Washington Post reported in April. The outlet reported that the company's planes have suffered failing engines, lost wheels, a falling engine cover, and a midair nosedive since the start of the year. In May, a Boeing 737-800 plane lost one of its external panels mid-flight. During a June Senate hearing, former Boeing CEO David Calhoun defended the company's safety record. Calhoun was replaced by Kelly Ortberg, former head of avionics firm Rockwell Collins, earlier this month. In yet another blow, NASA chose SpaceX over Boeing to bring home two astronauts stuck at the International Space Station following weeks of deliberations over safety concerns. The astronauts became stranded after the Boeing Starliner's reaction control system thrusters failed during its trip to the ISS in June. The craft's helium system was also leaking. https://www.yahoo.com/news/alaska-airlines-flight-forced-turn-014151419.html Passenger’s epic meltdown caught on camera as he kicks airplane door after missing flight An American tourist has been deported from Colombia after kicking and punching an airplane because he missed his flight. The wild video was initially shared to the X account @RedMasNoticias, but was reposted to Instagram, where it’s currently going viral. “This man had an aggressive demeanor that put both the staff and other travelers at risk,” said Daniel Gallo of the Colombian Air Transport Workers’ Union, Jam Press reported. The ruckus kicked off after the unnamed US citizen had reportedly showed up late to a LATAM airline flight that was slated to fly from Bogotá to Cartagena on August 23, local media reported. “This disruptive passenger first attacked the ground staff after being told that the flight had already closed and he had arrived late,” said Daniel Gallo of the Colombian Air Transport Workers’ Union. “He then forcefully proceeded to the boarding gate, and when he couldn’t get on the plane, he chose to breach flight security.” The traveler had reportedly arrived at the gate after closing, whereupon crew members denied him entry. However, instead of complying, the bozo bypassed the cordon and attempted to board the plane. “When he couldn’t get on the plane, he chose to breach flight security,” Gallo recalled. Upon finding that the aircraft door was closed, the irate flyer threw a tantrum for the ages. In the accompanying three-minute Instagram video, filmed by a passenger aboard the plane, the manchild is seen kicking the plane door in desperation. The irate flyer attacks the airplane door. The irate flyer kicks at the airplane door in the wild footage. The US citizen was reportedly deported from Colombia within hours. At one point, the desperate fellow drops to his knees and bangs on the window as he begs staffers to let him in. ‘Erratic’ plane passenger ‘ripped open’ exit door, walked onto wing: ‘Strange behavior’ He even tries fiddling with the joystick on the boarding bridge in a last-ditch attempt to get on the aircraft. Salvation came after police and security personnel apprehended the hellion and took him to the airport migration office, where he reportedly assaulted an official. The man was deported from the country within hours. Instagram viewers were shocked and appalled by the traveler’s meltdown. “Even if it’s possible to open the door for him to board, does he think that cabin crew or captain will allow such a crazy person to be onboard,” said one commenter. Another wrote, “Easiest way to get on the no-fly list.” A former airline employee also weighed in on the man’s antics. “Coming from a former airline agent, it is the agent’s responsibility at the check encounter to not let anyone through if the flight is already boarding,” they wrote. “There’s a cut-off time for you to check in counter once they let that passenger through especially at the gates now they all have to be accounted for smh.” https://nypost.com/2024/08/26/lifestyle/passenger-kicks-airplane-after-missing-flight/ United Airlines Boeing 787 Dreamliner Flight 945 From Frankfurt To Chicago Diverts To Edinburgh After Declaring Emergency Summary • A United Airlines Boeing 787-10, flying between Frankfurt, Germany, and Chicago, the United States, had to divert to Edinburgh, the United Kingdom. • As it diverted to Edinburgh Airport (EDI), the flight crew squawked 7700, the general code for emergency onboard an aircraft. • However, the aircraft was already scheduled to leave EDI, possibly indicating that it could have been a medical emergency. A United Airlines Boeing 787-10 was forced to divert to Edinburgh, Scotland, as it was about to begin crossing the Atlantic Ocean on its way to Chicago, the United States. While the reason for the diversion remains unknown, the airline has already scheduled a departing flight from the capital of Scotland. Diversion to EDI At 9:03 local time (UTC +2) on August 27, a United Airlines Boeing 787-10, registered as N12020, had departed on flight UA945 from Frankfurt Airport (FRA) to Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) . However, as the 787-10 was flying over the United Kingdom for its upcoming crossing across the Atlantic Ocean, the United Airlines twin-aisle jet began changing course northward just south of Hull, East Yorkshire, the UK. United Airlines Boeing 787-10 landing at LAX shutterstock_1894185601 Photo: Angel DiBilio | Shutterstock At the time of the diversion, the 787-10 had climbed to an altitude of 36,000 feet (10,972 meters), keeping the altitude until it began its descent towards Edinburgh Airport (EDI), which was the chosen diversion destination. Several other major airports were near the aircraft when it decided to divert to EDI, including Birmingham Airport (BHX) and Manchester Airport (MAN) . How Do Pilots Decide When To Divert & Where To Go? Pilots and dispatcher work together to make sure the plane is on the ground with plenty of fuel still in the tanks. Squawking 7700 As the aircraft began its descent to the airport serving the Scottish capital, the United Airlines pilots began squawking 7700, indicating a general emergency onboard the aircraft. However, the 787-10 descended normally and landed at EDI at 9:45 local time (UTC +1) after spending almost two hours in the air. Its normal descent profile could immediately rule out cabin pressurization issues since the pilots would have looked to descend to an altitude of 10,000 ft (3,048 m) or less. According to SKYbrary, a project run by EUROCONTROL, at altitudes below 10,000 ft (3,048 m), the reduced levels of oxygen have little effect on pilots and healthy passengers, but above that, the negative effects gradually worsen. “Above 20,000 ft [6,096 m – ed. note], lack of oxygen leads to loss of intellectual ability followed by unconsciousness and eventually respiratory and heart failure.” Leaving Scotland While it was currently unknown why the aircraft diverted to EDI, the fact that the 787-10 was already scheduled to leave Scotland could point to a medical diversion. Simple Flying has approached United Airlines for comment. According to Flightradar24, the 787-10 was scheduled to leave EDI at 10:50, with Great Circle Mapper data showing that the great circle distance between EDI and ORD was 3,226 nautical miles (5,974 kilometers). In addition to flight UA945, which diverted on August 27, United Airlines runs a second daily service between FRA and ORD, namely UA906. The latter flight has a scheduled departure time of 12:45, per Flightradar24. https://simpleflying.com/united-airlines-boeing-787-dreamliner-flight-945-diverts-edinburgh/ International Civil Aviation Organization Proposes New Safety Measures Amid Turbulence Concerns The International Civil Aviation Organization proposes new safety measures to address rising turbulence concerns, aiming to enhance global aviation safety standards. A global assembly of aviation regulators is convening in Montréal to deliberate on the industry’s future. Turbulence, a natural aspect of flying, emerged as a significant topic on the opening day of discussions. Recent months have seen a surge in turbulence-related injuries, making it a focal point in the ongoing dialogue. A scientific consensus is emerging. A second paper, presented to the conference by Japan and Singapore, with co-sponsorship from the Philippines, Thailand, Airports Council International, and the International Air Transport Association, builds upon the findings of the Korean study by offering additional insights. This paper provides robust scientific evidence suggesting that climate change could intensify weather patterns, potentially leading to an increase in turbulence-related incidents. The paper references recent data from the International Civil Aviation Organization’s (ICAO) 2024 Annual Safety Report, which reveals that turbulence was responsible for approximately 40% (24) of all accidents involving large aircraft in scheduled commercial operations last year. This was followed by accidents related to abnormal runway contact (8). Additionally, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) reported similar findings. To address these issues, the paper suggests several crucial strategies for member countries and aviation regulatory bodies to collaborate on sharing relevant data to minimize future turbulence-related incidents. The proposals include: Recognizing turbulence encounters as an ongoing global operational risk in the 2026-2028 edition of the Global Aviation Safety Plan. Encouraging states and industries to exchange experiences and best practices related to turbulence encounters among stakeholders. Further urging states and operators to make necessary arrangements to enhance the availability of air reports that contain quantitative turbulence data. Reuters reports that the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has stated that its 193 member states will vote on these proposals during their triennial assembly next year. https://www.travelandtourworld.com/news/article/international-civil-aviation-organization-proposes-new-safety-measures-amid-turbulence-concerns/ Boeing: China will more than double its commercial airplane fleet by 2043 According to Boeing’s forecast, air travel in mainland China will grow 5.2% annually, creating world’s largest traffic market. Demand for 8,830 new planes over next 20 years; about 60% for growth and 40% replacing older jets with more fuel-efficient models. China will more than double its commercial airplane fleet by 2043 as its aviation industry expands and modernizes to meet growing demand for passenger and cargo air travel, according to Boeing’s 2024 Commercial Market Outlook (CMO) for China, the company’s long-term forecast of demand for commercial airplanes and related services. China’s commercial fleet will grow 4.1% annually, from 4,345 to 9,740 airplanes by 2043, and its annual passenger traffic growth of 5.9% will exceed the global average of 4.7%, according to the CMO. Passenger volumes will receive a boost as airlines grow their networks by connecting major hubs to smaller cities. The China CMO forecast through 2043 also predicts: – Air travel in China is forecast to become the world’s largest traffic flow, driving growth in the single-aisle fleet, which accounts for more than three-quarters of deliveries. – China will have the world’s largest widebody fleet, with demand for 1,575 new widebody airplanes. – China’s freighter fleet – including dedicated and converted models – will nearly triple with demand stimulated by its booming e-commerce sector. Additional aviation industry growth potential: – Chinese carriers will need aviation services worth $780 billion to support the growing fleet, including digital solutions, maintenance and modifications. – Its airline industry will need to hire and train nearly 430,000 new personnel to support new pilots, maintenance technicians and cabin crew. Boeing is the largest customer of China’s aviation manufacturing industry with more than 10,000 Boeing airplanes flying with China-made parts. Boeing activity in China contributes more than $1.5 billion annually in direct support of China’s economy, including suppliers, joint ventures, operations, training, and research and development investment. https://aeronewsglobal.com/boeing-china-will-more-than-double-its-commercial-airplane-fleet-by-2043/ Aeromexico Pilot Tells JFK ATC To Relax, And It Gets Heated As an aviation geek, I love listening to air traffic control audio, and always enjoy the VASAviation YouTube channel, which does a great job covering noteworthy air traffic control interactions. The channel has just uploaded a video involving an interaction between an air traffic controller at New York Kennedy Airport (JFK) and an Aeromexico pilot. The interaction between the two gets heated, but I have a bigger takeaway based on this overall interaction… Aeromexico pilot & JFK air traffic controller get into it This incident happened at around 2AM on August 25, 2024, at Kennedy Airport. There was a single air traffic controller working delivery, ground, and tower, and he had his hands full, with a lot of parties (frankly) being annoying. I’ll talk more about that in a bit, but first let’s talk about the interaction that’s most noteworthy. An Aeromexico Boeing 737 MAX 8 with the flight number AM401 was preparing to depart to Mexico City (MEX). While the aircraft was being given taxi clearance, there was a minor misunderstanding, which wasn’t a big deal (but I still think it’s important context, since the Aeromexico pilot is in the wrong here): ATC: “Aeromexico 401, cross runway 31R at echo, follow the 777 ANA on charlie.” Pilot: “Okay, cross runway 13R on echo, and follow the heavy on charlie, Aeromexico 401.” ATC: “It’s not 13R, it’s 31R or 13L.” Pilot: You said 13R, but it’s 13L, okay.” ATC: “No, you said 13R, I said ‘cross 31R,’ Aeromexico 401.” Pilot: “Okay 31R or 13L, Aeromexico 401.” However, it gets really heated when takeoff clearance is given: ATC: Aeromexico 401, wind 230 at 7, caution wake turbulence, runway 22R, cleared for takeoff.” Pilot: “Can we wait one minute, just for caution, Aeromexico 401?” ATC: “Okay, Aeromexico 401, cancel your instructions and hold short of 22R. For future reference, you have to let me know before you get to the runway, okay? We only use five miles, and the aircraft is already five miles away, and the runway is two miles long. That’s seven miles.” Pilot: “Hello sir, this is the captain of the Aeromexico. I think you are the one that has to relax cause you are with a very bad mood with everybody. And we are going to wait two more minutes because it’s a heavy. I don’t care if it’s five miles or something. We’re gonna wait two more minutes.” ATC: “Aeromexico 401, that is your prerogative, but you have to let the ground controller know, in that case me, before you’re at the runway, okay?” Pilot: “Roger, but just look out your mood, sir.” ATC: “No. You want a number for the tower, Aeromexico 401?” Pilot: “No, thank you very much, I don’t want it. I’m just telling you, you are saying us to relax, you have to relax also.” ATC: “I didn’t say relax, at all, to you. Not a single time, Aeromexico 401. If you’d like the number for the tower, I can give you a number. You want a number to the tower?” Pilot: “No, thank you very much.” ATC: “Okay, so don’t key up and say relax to me, alright?” Pilot: “Okay.” My take on this ATC disagreement So, I have a lot of thoughts on this situation. First of all, this air traffic controller is working his rear off, handling delivery, ground, and tower, at one of the world’s busiest airports. Sure, it’s the middle of the night, but the airport also has a fair amount of traffic over those hours. How much stress to put on a single controller. It’s not just the volume of the traffic that the controller is dealing with that’s overwhelming, but also the lack of precision of the parties he’s dealing with: First the Aeromexico pilot incorrectly reads back instructions, which isn’t a huge deal, but the Aeromexico pilot comes across as having an attitude, saying “you said 13R,” when the controller didn’t Then the Copa pilot doesn’t do a great job with reading back the clearance instructions Listening to the Delta maintenance guy trying to communicate over the radio is B-R-U-T-A-L You have the Southern Cargo pilots requesting pushback clearance, when that’s not actually needed You have the Korean Air pilots repeatedly requesting clearance prematurely — “Korean that’s calling, you’re calling early, like every night, I have nothing for you, no flight plan” Then you have the Southern Cargo pilots responding to the Korean Air pilots, thinking that the Korean pilot is the air traffic controller, or something Seriously, this dude’s job is stressful enough, and it sure doesn’t help that roughly every other call is either unnecessary or inaccurate. Also, context is important — this guy is a New Yorker, and by New Yorker standards, he actually doesn’t come across as rude to me. Heck, by those (admittedly very low) standards, he almost seems patient. Lastly, telling any air traffic controller to “relax,” let alone in New York, isn’t ever going to be well received. Like, I’m pretty sure anyone with a spouse can attest to that not being a great strategy. To be clear, there’s nothing wrong with the Aeromexico pilot wanting to err on the side of caution and wait a moment for takeoff. He probably should’ve let the controller know earlier, but figured it wasn’t a big issue, since it’s not that busy in the middle of the night. When the controller told him to announce those intentions earlier in the future, he should’ve just said “sorry about that” or “okay,” and moved on with his day, in my opinion. Bottom line Air traffic controllers have stressful jobs, and that’s especially true for the guy working the graveyard shift at JFK, as he handles delivery, ground, and tower, all on his own. That’s tough enough under normal circumstances, let alone when so many people on the frequency are making errors. An Aeromexico pilot decided to tell the controller he should relax, and as you might expect, that wasn’t particularly well received. The interaction ended with the Aeromexico pilot agreeing not to tell the air traffic controller to relax. https://onemileatatime.com/news/aeromexico-pilot-jfk-atc-relax-heated/ CALENDAR OF EVENTS • Asia Pacific Airline Training Symposium - APATS 2024, 0-11 September, 2024, Singapore • Aircraft Cabin Air International Conference - 17 & 18 September - London • 2024 Ground Handling Safety Symposium (GHSS) - September 17-18, 2024 - Fort Worth, TX • Safety is not a Secret - September 27-28, 2024 - Seminar, JUNGLE AVIATION AND RELAY SERVICE • 2024 ISASI - Lisbon, Portugal - September 30 to October 4, 2024 • DEFENCE AVIATION SAFETY 2024 - 2 OCTOBER - 3 OCTOBER 2024 - LONDON • International Congress of Aerospace Medicine ICAM 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal, 3 - 5 October 2024 • Aviation Health Conference back on Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th October 2024 • Safeskies Australia Conference, Canberra Australia - 16th and 17th of October 2024 - www.safeskiesaustralia.org • 2024 NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition - Oct. 22-24 (Vegas) • Sixth Edition of International Accident Investigation Forum, 21 to 23 May 2025, Singapore Curt Lewis
