.....and another one. Of course the plane is 34 years old, but that doesn't change the headline.

Missing emergency slide that fell off Delta flight found — washed up in front of house of lawyer whose firm is suing Boeing
Jake Bissell-Linsk — a New York attorney whose firm filed a lawsuit against Boeing following the Alaska Airlines door blowout in January — told The Post he got a surprise on Sunday arou…nypost.com
I have a hard time seeing this as a manufacturing defect.
And the hits just keep on a comin'
Boeing 787 employees falsified inspection records; FAA opens probe
The FAA has opened a new investigation into a potential manufacturing quality lapse on Boeing's 787 Dreamliner and whether inspection records were falsified.www.seattletimes.com
Wow. An engine fire on a 747-400, and they're calling out the manufacturer?Next up, engine fire.
Watch: Boeing makes emergency landing after engine fire
A Boeing passenger plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Indonesia after an engine caught fire during take-off.www.aol.com
The way I read it, Boeing has already implemented the fix on affected aircraft.Okay, this isn't really breaking, exclusive news...there's been a NPRM for an AD for about two months now and the Daily Mail just discovered it. Don't know if an AD has been published yet. Perhaps a bit of over-hyping from the press on this one?
300 Boeing planes could have potentially fatal fault
The FAA warned Boeing that improper electrical grounding on its 777 could result in 'fire or explosion' mere months, according to a notice first reported by DailyMail.comwww.dailymail.co.uk
Reading that, I have to ask myself why the pilot flying didn’t abort the takeoff.Auto throttle disengaged on takeoff
'Serious' software glitch meant plane taking off from Bristol barely cleared the runway
The jet - carrying 163 passengers and six crew members, only managed to take to the sky with 260m (853ft) of runway remaining, and passed over the nearby A38 at a height of under 30m (100ft).news.sky.com
Boeing told investigators that the auto-throttle system on their 737 Next Generation jets had a "long history of nuisance disconnects during take-off mode engagements" - but that, when investigated, "usually, subsequent functionality checks on the system find no faults".
Instead of "Oh look, there it goes again, I got it."Prolly listen to the CVR and hear one of the pilots say, "what's it doing now?"
