Report: Missing Flight 1282 bolts were removed for repairs, never replaced
The four bolts missing from the door plug that ejected from Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 shortly after takeoff on Jan. 5 were removed during repairs to the plane’s frame during the manufacturing process, a preliminary report published by the National Transportation Safety Board states. Evidence suggests the bolts were never replaced before the plane was put into service.
