Tony, unless my 5 minutes of extensive internet research misled me, the type of door plugs used in these scenarios are installed by 3rd party contractors - who might very well provide no training on maintenance schedules to the airlines once the check has cleared - so there’s a bit of a Mexican firing squad going on. Add to that the chorus of keyboard warriors’ bloviations, and things can get very noisy.It's unfortunate.... sure, HQ made a mistake not investing the money in the 797 and instead making mods to the 737.....
But the facts are that this particular airframe had prior issues with depressurization warnings and it was not fixed. Indeed, it was not allowed to fly ETOPS.
There are likely two root causes.. something wrong with the door.. but most important: Poor Maintenance. It seems Alaska is nowadays outsourcing their maintenance whereas before they used to do it all in house.
So Boeing is getting hit for Alaska Airlines' cheapness.

There are way too many lawyers in the USA.
Yeah, but they also had me convinced for awhile that women like a guy with a sense of humor.Playboy magazine illustrates the (sex) appeal of hi-fi in the attached sequence of images.
But better than being LOST in Aberdeenshire!
This is a true story! My family are from Aberdeen but left for Australia when I was 3 years of age. Our first trip back was when I was 14. As a family we drove into the highlands and were having a look round, but got a bit lost. We spotted a really old fellow on the side of the road hunkered against the weather (it was December), so Dad stopped the car and said to me to go and ask the old guy the quickest way back to Aberdeen. With my full Aussie accent he didn't have a clue what I said - a bit hard of hearing too - so looked at his watch and said 'half past two'...
I didn't push it any further and returned to the car.
Thank you Galu.Isn't there a thread in which the Boeing 737 Max is under discussion?
Are those big knobs or smaller knobs?We Aussies love to name our knobs.

@Galu gets the credit for posting this a while back, and I had to agree.
