737 Max 9 Alaska Airlines fleet grounded
I'll never fly any of these 737 Max series and refuse any booking from clients or agencies involving companies flying these planes.

Given the relative youth of this airframe, only a few months after manufacture, and the previous problems withthe recent 737 series, this does cast some doubt on Boeing's build quality and inspection/supervision during build.
Like the OP, I'd be very reluctant to use this machine until further information becomes available.

Well, no reason to ground any MAX-8. -9 and -8200s have the additional emergency exit door, which for most -9 operators is covered from the inside. And unuseable a an exit. However what happened here to a plug type door needs to be found out. Boeing unfortunately have issues stacked against them. Need a new Multi Operator Message, SB or perhaps AD?
Another issue that will delay the -10?
