Then why wasn't the seat or seat belt ripped out of the plane? The biggest danger physics would play is the air being ripped out of your lungs and passing out.

Everything but the plastic frame was ripped out of the seat.

Yeah all that shite is basically velcroed in. The seatbelt, ya know the thing that keeps the person in the seat, is clearly still there.

One commentator from your Professional Pilots' Rumor Network PPRuNe.org link:
Also, Chris Brady of Boeing 737 Technical Site did an updated video specifically on this incident

Very informative video, thanks for sharing. So according to this guy the plug is secured in place by 4 bolts. Sounds like there was some sort of problem with the bolts to allow the plug to detach.

FAA grounded all 737 Max 9 airplanes. Around 176 in total around the globe.

I thought the cabin would look like a tornado, but from the looks of the hair on the passengers its just a nice breeze. I guess the aerodynamics of the plane is why, and that is impresssive.

Why don’t you go check out the ages of Boeing’s executive board. Every singe person is Gen X. Yet you find way to blame younger people.
Reading comprehension and logical deduction must not be your strong suits. You completely missed the point of my posit, which had nothing to do with Boeing’s executive board, but rather how as today’s aircraft mechanics reach retirement age, there is a shortage of young people going into the field to replace them.

At 16,000ft, you're getting sucked out if you're in that seat. I haven't been able to confirm it yet, but the rumor is the two people that should have been in those seats missed their connection which is why they went out unoccupied.
Wrong, if you're buckled in you'd likely be fine. The seat cover got sucked off of course because no one was sitting there. BA Flight 5390 had the captain sucked halfway out at 17000' and he wasn't buckled and survived.
If someone had been in this seat properly restrained they'd have been fine.

Only takes a few seconds for the pressure to equalize. After that, it's like a bus with a window down.
As always the moral is, movies are way off.

& how many of these jobs are being replaced by AI?

So it this going to lead to regulations that you have to stay buckled in the entire flight? No more taking belt off, no more going to bathroom, etc?

Are you actually asking how many aircraft mechanics are being replaced by AI?
Like you’re seriously asking this?

Airlines would love that shite...
No other industry hates their customers like the airlines.
They basically write their own regulations, and short of planes falling out of the sky, they do what they want.

Yes, I am suggesting that AI has and will continue to have a major influence on the aviation industry, even at the ground level. To suggest otherwise is naive. You’re probably the boomer who still doesn't know how to work a Microsoft Teams call.
“For example, aircraft manufacturers and service technicians can use AI software and robots, including language learning models like ChatGPT, to streamline assembly and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) processes. Airlines and other operators can also use AI for fleet optimization, flight planning, and ground operations. Engineers developing aircraft can use AI tools to facilitate and speed up the design and certification of products before they even hit the market.”

The regulatory agencies that would have to approve AI taking over airline jobs is going to be at least a decade behind the technology. It really doesn't matter how good AI is to be honest.

All have way worse customer service/appreciation.

Right now Iceland Air has 4 flying over the NE Canada towards Reykjavek and Copa Air has 3 in the air over Sout America
