Got sucked out the window, fell 32,000 feet and lived to tell about it. Missed the big pay day though.

All three of these incidents occurred on climb through 30,000 ft.

I'm thinking maybe CFM/GE might want to review this data a bit...

I think I remember watching a show about that. The pilot survived an was hailed as a hero until the investigation showed he fricked up big time.

"The passenger who was sitting right next to the window that exploded was in critical condition covered in blood," said Matt Tranchin, who was sitting three rows behind her. Another passenger, Eric Zilbert, said the woman was immediately given CPR by "several heroic gentlemen" who pulled her back through the window.

Fuel costs would skyrocket but lawsuits would be on the decline.

There is a case of a Hawaiian airlines flight from the big island to Oahu, where a large section of fuselage broke loose and took a flight attendant with it.

The plane landed safely but it had to be a wild, scary ride for the passengers. Attendant was never found.

NDT maintenance techs missed fuselage skin cracks. I think they were checked with Eddy Current tests IIRC. Wasn't an isolated incident, but definitely the most newsworthy regarding those issues

Marty is a douchbag media whore. If he hasn't been already, he'll be on CNN by suppertime.

quote:

The cabin suddenly lost pressure when engine debris pierced a window and flight attendants began crying, one passenger, Marty Martinez, founder and chief executive officer of Social Revolt digital marketing in Dallas, said in an interview. "When we saw that they started crying, of course we thought we were in a really bad place. We were going down," Martinez said. The woman who was injured “made no noise at all,” he said.



The woman who was injured "made no noise at all" ... Likely because she was full of shrapnel from a disintegrating turbine fan spinning at about 10,000 RPMs.

As a commercial airline pilot I can attest that this is patently false.
Try again.

Damn, check the date stamp. I didn't realize they had color cameras in 1929.
