A routine flight from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Mexico City International Airport Benito Juárez (MEX) is interrupted at takeoff when a panel in the Boeing 737's cockpit detaches, presumably falling on or near the pilots. ATC directs them in a holding pattern before bringing them back into LAX for maintenance. Captain Steeeve reacts to an equipment failure he's never seen before and explains why the pilots didn't have a screwdriver in the cockpit to manage the repair themselves. The retired pilot draws on his 40 years of experience to explain firsthand the impact events like 9/11 had on even the smallest aspects of being a pilot.
