Ryanair window blowout: How did it happen?
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
What began as a routine Ryanair flight from Greece to Germany turned into a mid-air emergency when a cabin window was dislodged after an apparent engine failure, causing rapid decompression and leaving one passenger partially sucked out of the aircraft before fellow travellers pulled him back to safety. The incident has raised fresh questions about aircraft safety, maintenance, and just how close this came to being a major aviation disaster. Joining Pat to get the latest is Kevin Byrne, retired lieutenant colonel & airport safety and security expert.
