I don't see how a repair that causes the nose of a plane to "fall off" would not be considered a "bigger repair"...

I'm not saying that Boeing would be involved in the replacement of a tire from the landing gear. But something major enough to make the actual nose of the plane to literally fall off? That sounds important enough to me.

The wheel near the nose fell off, not the nose itself smh
