BREAKING: Ryanair passenger reportedly saved from being sucked out the cabin after window fails during a flight from Thessaloniki to Memmingen.
According to local media Ryanair flight FR1879, a Boeing 737-8AS, returned safely to Greece on Friday after part of a damaged engine reportedly detached and struck a cabin window.
A 61-year-old man, who is from Serbia upon the return of the plane, was taken to AHEPA and will undergo a CT scan to see if he has fractures.
The doctor said the passenger’s wife was holding her husband’s feet to stop him from being completely sucked out of the aircraft. The passenger is currently in the hospital.
The aircraft declared an emergency with oxygen masks dropping in the cabin. The plane returned to Thessaloniki, landing safely on Friday morning, according to a senior Greek aviation official.
The official told ABC News that the Ryanair Boeing 737 suffered an uncontained engine failure. Parts from the engine hit the plane, damaging the fuselage and breaking a passenger window, according to the official.
If I thought I could be sucked out of a Plane Window, I wonder if……?
