In 1988, a terrifying aviation incident occurred when a Boeing 737 suffered a sudden, explosive loss of cabin pressure mid-flight. A large section of the upper fuselage tore away, exposing the cabin to open sky. Amid the chaos, a flight attendant was tragically swept out and lost her life—the sole fatality. Remarkably, all other passengers and crew survived.
The pilot’s calm and skilled response was critical, managing to safely land the damaged aircraft just 13 minutes after the emergency began. The event, later dramatized in the film Flight 243: Emergency Landing, highlighted the bravery, coordination, and professionalism that turned a potential disaster into a story of survival.
