    So it was a controlled decent to below 10,000ft. The headline in very deceptive.

    Went 2 times in a 737 max this month and it was terrifying. I already hate flying but this plane is just garbage, it doesn't sound or look well made at all. When we arrived at the airport the cabin crew asked us to stay still and move out in groups because otherwise the plane would tip backwards because of the weight difference. I have never heard of something like that before in any plane.
  • This is what happens when they cut corners to maximize corporate profits. Corporate greed at its greatest.

    Boeing 737MAX8 is an aircraft with problems !!! They should remove this aircraft from their fleet
  • @inb2551
    ? What caused the decompression!
  • @LovelyLove542
    The Max plane needs to be pulled out of service. There is a clear pattern of systematic failure with the quality of the product. The Lack of effective government oversight of Beoing to ensure public safety is self evident. We have an organization more concerned with their bottom line, which is evident in the quality of the product being placed on the market.
  • I know this isn’t related to the video but I saw that airport when I went out of the airplane
  • @Catdaddyyyyy
    So its tru what people said, dont fly with boeing anymore
  • @catabakies69
    I wonder where CNN, FOX, and major news canals are
  • And yet another 737 MAX issue. This needs to be thoroughly investigated to determine that real cause. MAX jets are known for pressurization problems and if it is the aircraft I have one word for Boeing - RECALL. Recall the entire fleet of both 8 and 9 and make the skies a little safer again. They won't be totally safe until the 787 Nightmare Liner is also recalled.

    Boeing will have to ground planes. Plane ticket prices will increase by a lot. Tourism and carbon emissions will go down.

    I wonder if it was un controllable or if it was done by the pilot due to pressure loss. 29,600 in 15 min. doesn't seem that drastic. The initial report said 25,000 in 5 minutes. A malfunction however none the less. I hate to see this happening to Boeing.
