The number of accidents and incidents involving Boeing commercial planes, at least during the first 55 days of this year, is relatively the same as 2023, federal data shows.

There have been 19 incidents, accidents and occurrences involving Boeing planes globally as of Feb. 24, according to the most recent data available from the National Transportation Safety Boards Case Analysis and Reporting Online tool (CAROL). For comparison, the NTSB documented 23 such events during the same 55-day period last year.

Events in the U.S. so far this year include the mid-air door plug scare involving a Boeing 737 Max 9 aircraft over Oregon on Jan. 5, an engine fire in Miami on Jan. 18 and stuck rudder pedals on Feb. 6 in New Jersey.
