Stadig havner "sprekk i vinduet" i avisen, uten at det er dramatisk. Men frem fra arkivet - dramatikk ved bruk av feil bolter for å feste vinduet:
06/10/1990 c 08:20
LOCATION: Oxfordshire, England
CARRIER: British Airways FLIGHT: 5309
AIRCRAFT: BAC One-Eleven
REGISTRY: S/N:
ABOARD: 85 FATAL: 0 GROUND:
DETAILS: On a flight from Birmingham, England to Malaga, Spain,
at FL 230, a large section of windshield fell away from the aircraft. The decompression pulled the captain out from under his seatbelt. Despite trying to hold onto the yoke, the captain was sucked out into the opening. A steward in the cockpit was able to grab hold of his legs. Another steward was able to strap himself into the vacant seat and aid in holding onto the captain's legs. The copilot wearing full restraints made an emergency landing at Southampton. The captain remained half way out of the aircraft for 15 minutes and suffered only frostbite and some fractures. Improper bolts used to replace the windshield two days earlier.
Hendelsen ble selvfølgelig omtalt i avisene:
The pilot of a passenger plane was partly sucked out of the cabin window onto the nose cone of the jet today after its windshield blew out at 23,000 feet. But he was saved by crew members who clung to his ankles for 15 minutes until the co-pilot landed the plane safely in southern England.http://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/11/world/4-miles-over-britain-pilot-is-sucked-out-crew-holds-on-tight.html
