A comprehensive six-week audit conducted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), has revealed multiple issues with Boeing's production of the 737 MAX jet. The investigation was initiated following an incident where a door panel detached from a 737 MAX 9 during an Alaska Airlines flight in January. The audit, which also included one of Boeing's key suppliers, Spirit AeroSystems, found several instances where both entities failed to meet quality-control requirements.
