After a Southwest Airlines plane split open with a hole inflight over Arizona, inspectors are looking for more cracks in the carrier's 737-300 fleet, and have found at least three. Boeing is reportedly putting together a service bulletin for all such planes, with metal fatigue believed to be the cause.
