United 737 Panel Found Missing After Flight from San Francisco to Oregon

A panel was found missing from a United Boeing 737-800 after it landed in Medford, Oregon on Friday. The plane had flown from San Francisco.

The missing panel was on the underside of the plane where the wing meets the body, near the landing gear.

The flight with 139 passengers and 6 crew landed safely, no injuries reported. The damage was noticed in a post-flight inspection.

This latest incident comes after other recent issues with Boeing planes, including a panel blowing off a Boeing Max 9 in January after takeoff from Portland.

The FAA said it will investigate the missing panel on the United flight. Boeing deferred comment to the airline.
