Boeing will be subject to sanctions for disclosing non-public information about a federal investigation into a door plug blowout on one of its 737 Max 9 planes. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) announced the sanctions on Thursday. The incident, which occurred in January, left a gaping hole in the aircraft. U.S. investigators are penalizing Boeing for sharing details about the investigation, which is considered a violation of federal regulations. The sanctions were announced in New York, and the company’s stock symbol is $BA.
