Boeing 737: A Series of Mishaps That Plagued The US Planemaker

Boeing, the US planemaker, has come under severe scrutiny after its jets were involved in several mishaps this year. The scrutiny began this year with a mid-air door panel blowout incident in January involving a 737 Max jet, raising concerns about the quality of the planes manufactured by the company. However, this is not new for the firm. The fatal crash of a Lion Air plane in Indonesia in October 2018 and another crash in Kenya five months later initiated intense scrutiny of Boeing's 737 MAX aircraft. Now, the US Justice Department alleges that Boeing has breached its obligations under a 2021 agreement that prevented the planemaker from facing criminal prosecution following those crashes, which claimed the lives of 346 people. Here is a timeline of the crises Boeing's 737 Max jets have been involved in.
