Whether a design issue or an assembly quality control issue, I think the FAA (or even Delta itself) should ground the 900ER as well for inspection. On medium haul, it's hard to stay away from 900ER... Safety needs to be #1.
I was wondering the same. Could it be that Delta’s B737-900ER’s have been through the “C” and possibly the “D” checks?
