The US aviation regulator FAA has ordered that some of the 737 Max 9 aircraft must remain on the ground. This concerns aircraft on American territory and aircraft from American airlines.
An Alaska Airlines aircraft of this type had to make an emergency landing yesterday after losing part of its fuselage about 35 minutes after takeoff.
The aviation authority wants to check the aircraft before they fly. The check takes four to eight hours and affects 171 aircraft worldwide.
A passenger on board the plane filmed the incident. View the images here:
