I'm sure DEI hires have nothing to do with these maintenance "issues."
DIE will kill ya.
Yup!
That’s a LOT of “missing panel”.
How many other instances of this particular panel being “missing: are there?
These problems are entirely on United, not on Boeing.
I also don’t think they’re evidence of incompetence.
I think they’re sabotage.
“I think they’re sabotage.”

The Boeing 737 fuselage, built at Wichita's Spirit AeroSystems, being shipped to final assembly in the Seattle, Washington area.
Unreal!
Sounds like sabotage
These incidents are sabotage.
Good Lord.
No, this looks like an integrity failure, not maintenance related (although maybe revealing a flawed inspection process).
Huh, another United plane with a maintenance issue. Imagine that. Hey United, how’s that tranny CEO and all that DEI workin’ out for ya?
It looks like integrity failure only in that it was flapping around in the air stream before tearing off.
That points to either a failure to secure it properly, or that the latch or hinges were too worn.
Main landing gear cover. On a 25 year old aircraft that has been through tens of thousands of take off and landing cycles, fatigue could definitely be a factor.
