     That may be the case, but the issue itself may not be Boeings    
   esponsibility.  The 739-ER entered service in 2007. Depending on when Delta   
   took possesion the aircract may have already been through 1 D check.     
      
     If there had been any other issues requiring the flap assembly to be worked   
   on.   
      
     How was it maintained the airlines from delivery to issue?   
      
     The 737NG has been a reliable airframe.   
      
   Though the MAX and the issue with the door plug have tainted the entire 737   
   line.  Simmilar to the American DC10 crash in Chicago.  The issue stemmed from   
   impropper MX procedures that MD had on record of discouraging.
