And both were Boeing 737s ... (albeit different variants)

The Alaska Airlines flight that had a door fall off was also a Boeing 737
I was going to reply that I thought the Boeing 737 was also hands down the most popular commercial airplane model in current use, so of course it would have more high profile issues. Then I did a quick web search and apparently the Airbus A320 is actually more popular since 2025, otherwise they’re fairly close to even. Yet these things only seem to happen to Boeing.

So yeah, never mind, fair game to blame Boeing actually.
