A federal investigation into a troubled Alaska Airlines flight continues to widen.
The bad news for Boeing continues. The airplane manufacturer’s troubles began in January when one of its planes, a 737 MAX, suffered a fuselage rupture mid-flight. The flight, Alaska Airlines 1282, was in the process of taking off from Portland, Oregon when a part of the plane’s hull suddenly blew out. The plane quickly routed back to the airport and landed without incident.
This week, it was revealed that the FBI has been sending letters to passengers of the Alaska flight that states they may have been victims “of a crime.” A copy of one of the letters was shared with NBC by Mark Lindquist, an attorney for some of the people who were on the flight. The letter, which was written by a victim specialist with the FBI’s Seattle division, says: “I’m contacting you because we have identified you as a possible victim of a crime.
