Are Boeing鈥檚 planes in trouble?
The mid-flight blowout signals a turbulent time for the company.
Plane manufacturing giant Boeing has been making the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Videos of a dramatic door blowout onboard an Alaskan Airlines flight swept through social media in January. 91热爆 reporter Thomas Mackintosh tells us about his chat with Cuong Tran, the man who was just inches away from the hole in the plane.
We also hear from the 91热爆鈥檚 North America Business Correspondent Erin Delmore, who tells us what might be behind the other incidents involving Boeing this year and how the company has responded.
Plus we discuss the allegations of a whistleblower who appears to have taken his own life in between testifying against the company.
