Window door plug blows off 737 Max 9 aircraft Alaska Airlines flight 1282 Pilot Audio ATC 

*Live Streams at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport & Asia airport Live Stream trip will begin next week*

That pilot handled things superbly! I like her effectively saying to the controllers, "thanks for the ideas but we're coming straight in".

Sitting in a Max waiting for take off while watching this… good job on the pilots for being on it and having all info ready.

Good example as to why one must always wear a seatbelt when seated aboard an aircraft... especially one flying above 10kft

My uncle was on that flight! There was a guy that was sitting right behind that exit door that stood up for a few seconds for some reason and then sat down, put his seatbelt on and maybe 20 seconds later the door blew. That guy could have been sucked right out.

Love how this pilot(s) stayed way ahead of the emergency by announcing fuel and souls onboard before being asked. Confirming cleared for approach proactively was nice. Freed up a few seconds needed to aviate.

For those questioning…. she was originally talking through an oxygen mask, which then is removed below 10000 feet. Looks like the pilots did a great job. Does anybody know if this was the overwing door or the inoperable door between the wing and 2L? Glad nobody got hurt! Great job by Alaska and ATC!

It's absolutely amazing how calm airline pilots are in emergency situations.

As usual a great example of pilots under duress. They just don't panic. They react as trained

Wow ! How cool and composed ATC and crew were throughout..!

The pilot is so bloody calm. Wow great job by her, the crew and passengers❤❤❤❤

It always amazes me the professionalism that's displayed by pilots and ATC controllers in these situations, as well as how intense the tone shift is very subtly in their voices as the ATC controllers shift from management mode to "This pilot makes all the decisions right now, tell us what you want or need".

Professional pilots! Good job Alaska air!

The pilot did a good job of keeping her shit together and getting the job done. Way to go!

This is why you always keep your seatbelt on even if you're just at cruising altitude. Anything can happen at any time.

The Captain and the Crew of Alaska 1282 did a fantastic professional performance to take on the inflight emergency in a moment notice and provide a safety approach back to Portland airport and praise God no passenger were injured or sucked out of the Cabin .

This is why you ALWAYS keep you seat belt on !!

I blame this on the legacy of Jack Welch, former head of General Electric, a company now a shadow of its former self. Why? Because Jim McNerney, a former underling and devotee of Welch's cut-to-the-bone management style became head of Boeing and brought Welch's extreme emphasis on profitability to the Boeing mindset. In other words, McNerney took the power away from the engineering guys and gave it to the MBA's. Big mistake. And this is what happens.

Am very much impressed by the pilot. She stayed very calm.

Noone mentions what might have happened outside. The panel / door whatever might well have hit the tail plane and caused all manner of issues, so they got lucky on that one too.

Kudos to the level headed pilot

Wow that was one of the weirdest ATC emergency situations I've ever heard. In my opinion ATC asked too many questions and didn't give them enough time to just work the problem. Those ladies sounded a little stressed...lol. Good work though.

Amazing how professional and calm ATC were when communicating with the pilot... Let's not panic.. Allowing everyone to make the correct decisions, saving lives potentially..

The pilots and air traffic people are amazing. Well done.

minor miracle that no-one was sucked out of there seatbelts for the win

Excellent job by the pilot flying...never ever take your seat belts off at any time.

The 737 Max' third serious problem. How the hell can a door spontaneously blow out?

Great job to the Captain and ATC. Great example why to wear a seat belt all the time.

This is so scary! Apparently there was a child in the seat across from where the panel blew out. The child’s shirt was sucked off of his body and his mother was holding on to him. This info was from a news interview with a fellow passenger.

complete and total professionalism. so well handled.

Glad everyone onboard is safe. I'd hate to be where that panel lands 😮

The best quality control would be to have all the employees who worked on these airplanes fly in them after certification. That way it's very unlikely any work will be botched.

Kudos to the crew and ground control.

Both Pilots DID PHENOMENAL !!! As well as ATC and other ground personnel !!

There was a 737 way back in the 70,s that lost a huge roof section and one stewardess was sucked out but amazingly the pilots landed despite the fusulage was flexing making it a miracle that no body else died and the aircraft didnt come apart.I think it was a flight from Alloha?

Kudos to the pilots and the air traffic controllers for bringing this plane in safely.

Major props to the pilot for her professionalism and landing the plane safely. Thank goodness there were no injuries and nobody was killed. I wish it was more info about what happened. Every story seems to be very short on this. I guess there’s not a lot of information yet, but I was wondering if there was anybody actually sitting in that seat. Absolutely terrifying.

Absolutely amazing and professional, how the pilot... were calmed in the situation. Thank God, no life lost

It was pitch black and possibly IFR conditions when this occurred. Nice work by the flight & cabin crew.

Now go and check the assembly line in Renton for an unaccounted pack of door bolts.

Amazing professional Pilot . very good job.😍❤‍🩹💯

Really love that the pilot proactively stated souls and fuel weight; she knew these questions were incoming. Very very impressed with her decisions.

Little to much redundant questions from ATC, but the pilot handles it well.

Pilot is on it. ATC is a step behind this time.

In an emergency you tell ATC what you are going to do. They need to clear your path and an immediate altitude change is the pilots discretion in an emergency.

Great job by the pilot and ATC.

Well done to the pilots and flight crew aboard this flight!

Wow these new max jets, there really starting to worry me, trying to modernise a 1960s airframe is crazy!!! Mcas, rudder issues, now they aint even bolted together correctly!!!

Way to go Pilot!!!!!! ❤

Top marks for dealing calmly with the situation!

Everyone involved handled this situation perfectly- pilots and ATC. Great job!

ATC were really off on this. Granted, they weren't aware of the severity necessarily, but any depressurization is clearly really bad. Delay vectors to burn fuel or holding patterns is kinda ridiculous. They clearly needed to get that craft on the ground asap. ATC should have been trying to maneuver all other aircraft in the area vs trying to delay the emergency. I don't know much about aviation, but I could definitely sense the pilot's frustration building

Pilot: we’re declaring an emergency ATC: but is it really an emergency?

*More Hong Kong Live Streams at the amazing mountain location again if you can like this video which will help pay for it, as said at the beginning of the video it's audio only*

excellent ATC reporting

Don‘t like to be to harsh, but ATC was ok, but not an A+ on point. Just my 2c. Exceptional well done by pilots.

News report said this plane was only 2 months old; so it seems like Boeing needs to re-validate their quality assurance procedures.

Air crew: A+ ATC: Needs improvement.

Thank you for upload

Cool, Calm and Collected.

Bravo to the pilot ATC and all crew for landing safely and all 177 souls aboard safe on tarmac at PDX 🙏🏻

great job

Text Book from Aircraft and ATC. Well done!

Props (jets 😉) to this pilot for the way she handled all the communication while being super busy I'm sure. Sully the 2nd lol. She needs a raise and scr_w Boeing for once again putting our lives in Jeopardy. From now on, 'If it's Boeing, I' m not going "💀

Wow! Very professional crew. What happens if this door blows off over Colorado where the mountains are 12K - 14K feet? Oxygen in the passenger area is not pressurized.

Professionals. All of them. Well done.

Female pilot was so professional and calm. I'm very impressed with the reaction of flight and ground crew. Opening air spaces in blocks, asking if they want to go lower in altitude, everything was so slick and professional. This is rare, they all deserve a raise that day!

Well done that female pilot, very clear and precise, methinks the 737 Max aircraft are jinxed, always something happening. Boeing should just call it quits with that aircraft.

I've been on a plane that depressurized. It was at the time over mountains so it took some time to get lower. The mask instructions are poor. People expect the bag to inflate. It does not. Further there is no sensation that oxygen is being delivered. So, folks start panicking. You can monitor your fingernails..... if you're low on oxygen, they'll be bluish. The Stewards/Stewardesses can't help because they don't have portable O2 to allow them to move around. There is a test procedure written on the bag but I can't recommend taking the mask off to study the instructions. You might best spend your time trying to remain calm (you consume less O2), writing a last note to your loved ones, etc. The onboard O2 system is very limited.

She even said the fuel and passengers on board and he still asked!!

I love how even tho its an emergency they both said thank you and have a good night before changing frequency

How far down Boeing has fallen...

Panel was probably installed by one of Boeing's financial officers 'This type of bolt is 3 cents cheaper, so if we install 24 bolts in the panel that will save 3x24=72 cents!'

Cool calm and collected by all. = By the book.= Well done!

Beautiful!

How does a door blow off a new aircraft?

Kudos. Cool as cucumber professionals.

Splendid job.

god bless their constant training and coolness for the situation

Emergency door departed the aircraft during flight, could be a component failure, latch issue or other related problem. Alaska and Boeing will figure it out and put measures in place to prevent reoccurrence

How stupid was the guy traffic controller? What part of emergency and depressurization did he not understand?

Boeing: Our planes are top tier quality that it can fly without doors, even wingless.

Great job well done.

What truly matters in a pilot isn't how good they are when things go smoothly,but how good they are when things go wrong. Kudos to this pilot and flight crew.

Aircraft are like cars,they keep making them more complicated than needed.

Amazing coolness under pressure

Professionally managed from both the pilot and ATC staff.

This is a brand new aircraft! What is going on with that!

A 737 máx? I can.t believe😁😁 Bad beginning 2024 (or not at all) Two miracles in 5 days

The one time a PM has souls and fuel before being asked, ATC doesn't get it.

The crew is more in control and relatively less stressed out than me after realising i burnt my meal while leaving it for a few minutes on the stove.. to attend a phone call.

when did it happen?

amazing job. i cried

This pilot is one awesome woman.

Great job, FO!

Boeing 737 MAX, this public danger has to be stoppef before worse happens

Excellent professionalism.

The years and places I've flown, I have to say Seattle Center and Tower and KPDX area is one of the relaxed and nicest and helpful group in the industry.

Oh those 737 Max’s, always a surprise with them…

This is why I want humans in the cockpit and not AI. Emergencies tend to focus the human mind. Great job to the Pilots!
