Image quality from the video cam is spectacular. Sound is amazing.

Crazy to think that the door plug could have blown out on that flight. Luckily it waited to blow.

[@EuropeanRailfanAlt]

Wow, the same plane whos door plug came off.
But I have no worries, I'd still fly on a 737 MAX (because it's a bit silly doing some sort of "try not to fly a certain aircraft variant" challenge)

I am departing Sea next month on a Max 9 on flight 1220 To LAX on the 11th I am not sure why people are so worried lol I am not unease at all xd

Like almost all American Companies nowadays, the CEO’s have begun to squeeze every dollar of work out of every employee. So, there will inevitably be misuse of company directive, and a lot of intensive labor hours which will inevitably create problems with design, usability, and safety features. The MAX 9 and most Boeings nowadays have a lot of flaws due to this cycle, and unless Boeing take initiative and put in place efforts, such as more vacation time for applied hours, incentives for effort, or just generally appreciative business practices, they will fall into a poor position which will lead to money loss. But, I think it will definitely be found out soon.

Heaviest scrutiny didn’t catch the missing bolts though
