Jump to postCould someone with a better understanding of the landscape comment on whether this will trigger a full regulatory entity (NTSB) investigation? Or since no one was killed or hurt would it be deemed ‘no harm, no foul’ and left to Alaska Airlines or Boeing to review if they choose to?
Jump to postNot an expert on this at all but wonder if this the first significant crash and post-crash fire of a carbon fibre large passenger aircraft? What might this tell us (even at this early stage) about performance in terms of structural strength/ integrity, fire propagation (esp. in terms of evacuation)...

Jump to postBesides the TSA, the story is incredibly vague - Why did he declare it and out himself? Couldn’t he have walked out the airport and shipped it back home for the return trip? Or sold it to a local and spare the hassle? (per local laws)

Jump to postThey can address this by instating pay cuts to senior FO’s and maybe degradation in QoL to nudge them to move along. The airlines already play these dark pattern tactics with basic economy fares etc with pax.
