From Hill Street Blues: LaRue and Washington (I believe) were passengers on a plane experiencing some difficulty. As the plane careens and shakes, the flight attendant instructs the passengers to “lean forward, and put your head between your knees”, to which LaRue adds, not missing a beat, “and kiss your butt goodbye”.
Should properly say Boeing, not Alaska. PBC (Pre bean counting) management, used to be the safest planes in the sky. Now I prefer Airbus. Quieter, roomier, and apparently better designed and built.
The quality of work is often proportional to the wages paid. The lot that put that door on were.. likely low paid kids that had trouble reading instructions.

Boeing has admitted it was their fault – not the airline.
