Boeing can’t stop receiving bad press.
Republican vice president nominee J.D. Vance’s airplane was forced to make an emergency landing at Milwaukee International Airport on Friday after the main door reportedly opened mid-flight.

Vance’s National Press Secretary Taylor Van Kirk said, ‘The pilot advised there was a malfunction with the door seal. After declaring an emergency, Trump Force Two returned to Milwaukee.”
Vance was traveling with his wife Usha and dog Atlas during the scare, which resulted in the Milwaukee County Fire Department inspecting the plane before taking off again.
The incident comes just a week after Donald Trump’s airplane had to land in Billings, Montana, due to a mechanical issue.
Secret Service said the mechanical problem was not related to any security issue.
Both Trump and Vance fly on Boeing aircraft, a company which has been under a microscope lately for one dangerous failure after another.
