Watch: New footage shows inside Boeing plane inspection after dramatic mid-air blowout

Bolts in need of "additional tightening" have been found during inspections of Boeing 737 Max 9s, United Airlines has said.

United Airlines said "installation issues" relating to door plugs would be "remedied" before the aircraft type would return to service.

Inspections began after a section of the fuselage fell from an Alaska Airlines 737 Max 9 on Friday.
