Boeing pays Alaska Airlines $160 million in compensation for the blowout of a panel during flight
apnews.com
Alaska Airlines says Boeing has paid the carrier $160 million in “initial compensation” for a panel that blew out of an Alaska Boeing 737 Max 9 jetliner in January.
The airline said Thursday that it expects additional compensation, the terms of which it said are confidential.
The payment covered Alaska’s pretax loss related to the accident, including lost revenue and the cost of returning its Max 9 fleet to service after the planes were grounded for three weeks.

It's interesting these costs of doing business the shitty way keep adding up. Just imagine how much they've skimped, stolen or extracted in value over the years to make this still the best way to make a profit in business. Nationalize them.
