"A 1-foot-by-2-foot hole tore open in the fuselage of a commercial airliner that suddenly lost cabin pressure shortly after taking off from Miami, authorities said."

I remember this one pretty well:

"n 1988, cracks caused part of the roof of an Aloha Airlines Boeing 737 to peel open in flight. A flight attendant plunged to her death."

I remember the Aloha airlines one. It happened 2 days after we had flown on one of their flights between islands.

Yeah, we analyzed the aloha 737 in a few engineering classes.

It'll be interesting to see what the FAA has to say about today's incident

In Cali, jetfighter lost power to his unit, decided to eject, and had to let the plane crash into an entire neighborhood.
