What is going on with the planes lately? A door comes off? Bolts coming loose? A wing comes off? Is this terrorism or is this lax safety protocols? Poor workmanship?

Is this terrorism or is this lax safety protocols? Poor workmanship?

A wheel coming off sounds like lousy maintenance. We're certainly hearing about these issues more than usual the last month or so since the Alaska 737 plug door fell off - but are they happening more than usual?

My sister was on a flight this past Sunday from BWI to Denver where they had to shut down one of the engines because it had caught fire. It was a Boeing 737.

Nothing more than usual. FR just reports on every glitch to build a narrative.
