The plane made an emergency landing back in Portland 20 minutes after taking off from there on a flight that had been destined for Ontario, Calif.
No one was hurt, all passengers had their seat belts on. A couple bits of this, and that, and a cell phone or two were sucked out, but nothing important happened.
It has nothing to do with what the name of the airline brand is, the plane was made by Boeing, and inspected quite thoroughly before being certified by the FAA for use by anyone, anywhere, any time.
Now, it's going to be months until they figure out what caused the door to part ways with the rest of the plane.
Turns out the cell phone survived the fall. Sounds like the perfect opportunity for a phone manufacturer to brag about its shock-resistant product.
ReplyDeleteoh WOW! That maker ought to buy that phone, and send it on a press tour! CES starts tomorrow!
