A Southwest Airlines plane was forced to make an emergency landing Saturday after the cabin started losing pressure. CBSDFW reports the plane is now undergoing a maintenance review.
quote:

Passenger Glen Eichelberger said at around 9 p.m., the oxygen masks came down and passengers were told to put them on because the cabin was losing pressure. Passenger Josh Trimberger said the plane was about 30 minutes outside of Dallas at that point.
quote:

"I had no idea what was going on or what the outcome was going to be," said Eichelberger. "I reached over and grabbed Josh by the arm because I didn't know if we were going to make it or not. There was no communication what so ever from the flight attendants or from the cockpit as far whether we were in mortal danger."

Were they wearing them correctly this time?

For how tragic as that woman dying was, the photo of everyone wearing the masks incorrectly was funny.

I just loaded up on their stock last week

Their business model is incredible in that industry. They'll rebound.

Just a little different scenario, cars can pull over, planes can't.

Article doesn't say it but I think this is the plane that had a windshield issue. As in front of the pilots. It came loose in flight and depressurrized the plane.
