‘Big hole’ in Qantas plane prompts landing
Jet touches down in Manila after mysterious 'explosive decompression'
MANILA, Philippines - A hole the size of a small car in the underside of a Qantas jumbo jet carrying 346 passengers forced the pilot to make an emergency landing Friday after a rapid descent over the South China Sea.
Looks like it blew out from a bagage bin. Nobody hurt ,all is good.
I just avoid the planes with holes in them. That strategy has worked so far.And that is just one of many reasons whay I don't fly. Never have, never will. I know, I have heard all the stats before about how you are more likely to be killed in a car. Doesn't matter. I am still not flying.

Looks more like a repeat of what happened on the Hawaiian flight a number of years back, metal fatigue, caused by too many landings n takeoff cycles.
I believe it was time to change some underwear.Poor maintance no excuss.
I used to have a car that would do that. Honk if parts fall off!The problem is those that develope holes in mid air.
I rember as if it were yesterday. Folks were worried about flying and some even speculated that it was an act of terrorism. Sounds familiar???

Wow...I'm staying away from you in a thunderstorm. :-DI did not feel the shock from the lightning this time as I have at least five times before. (On the ground, not in a plane).
Mostly why I didn't fly on their airlines. BTW, they finally went out of business earlier this year. Crappy equipment + crappy facilities + crappy customer service = outta business! Can't say I miss them one bit.
