Panama grounds some Copa Boeing 737 MAX 9s after Alaska blowout
Panama's civil aviation authority said on Thursday it had temporarily prohibited operations of 21 of Copa Airlines' Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft after a mid-air blowout of a cabin panel on an Alaska Airlines flight last week.
Copa has 29 737 MAX 9 jets in its fleet, but only 21 have the panel known as a mid-cabin door plug, the authority said in a statement.
