Ryanair Flight Nearly Lost Passenger | Leicester News

from Leicester News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A Ryanair flight from Greece suffered a terrifying mid-air emergency when a fan blade shattered off the engine, puncturing a window and nearly sucking a 61-year-old passenger out of the plane—only for fellow travelers to yank him back in. Bird debris found in the engine suggests a bird strike may have triggered the failure, which also caused additional structural damage. The NTSB is investigating thoroughly, including potential issues with maintenance or age, while rebuking Ryanair CEO Michael OLeary for prematurely dismissing safety concerns. All passengers were safely evacuated, with one requiring medical care—proof that even in the sky, chaos can strike in seconds.
