  • PART 2 | The cause of the accident on board Flight 243 is immediately apparent. The plane had been so poorly maintained and had been worked so hard, that the body panels had become unstuck. One of the passengers even spotted a large crack in the hull as they boarded the plane but was too nervous to mention anything.
    What caused the fuselage to suddenly give way? Watch part 1 here: • Miracle Landing On Boa...
    From Season 3 Episode 1 "Hanging By A Thread": Flight 243 takes off in clear weather conditions but shortly after, the pilots hear a loud bang. A huge chunk of the plane's roof and walls is missing. With the risk of passengers beginning to suffer from oxygen starvation, the plane lands safely and all passengers survive.

    My wife and I and two friends had just gotten off of this flight in Hilo. We boarded the flight in Honolulu and as we were getting settled in our seats, I opened the overhead bin to place a piece of luggage there. I noticed that the fabric lining the bin was really torn and coming loose. I commented to my wife that it seemed the inside of the aircraft had not been well maintained. Upon landing at Hilo, we rented a car to drive over to Kona. I was doing the driving and on the way I had the worst headache I have ever experienced in my life. Something to do with the aircraft and pressure? Have no idea. We new nothing about the return trip and the top coming off of the plane until we got to our hotel room and turned on the television. We remembered the flight attendant that was sucked out of the plane and lost. We were one flight cycle away from disaster.

    Poor CB. What an awful way to go out. Most airlines today, do not have someone trained that walks around the airplanes to check for exterior damage. The flight crew doesn’t normally get out and walk around the plane either. I haven’t seen anyone do so. This is often just left to ramp agents. I have temporarily worked as a ramp agent, and when flights land, we are the only people that come out to walk around an airplane to check for leaking fluids and any structural anomalies. Ramp agents are not trained in that. We just looked for the obvious, and often we would be so busy that we would forget. There weren’t any consequences for not looking. You weren’t reminded and it wasn’t even emphasized, but the planes then just take off full of people. I would think that today, there would be someone trained that could come out for like 5 minutes to specifically check the structures and know what they’re doing. If that were the case, something like that wouldn’t be missed again. It just seems kind of obvious that should be a thing. They could literally just train the ramp supervisor. But the walk-around is left to complete noobs. I did my first solo walk-around inspection on like day 3 and I had no clue what I was looking at at the time. I was like “yep, it’s a plane”. Unless it was leaking somewhere, I wasn’t going to be any help.

    They had insane amount of "luck" to stay in the air and then land without crashing.

    If a plane was designed to be used for 20 years, how were they allowed to fly the plane longer?
    Considering planes not only deal with pressure being an on/off thing, but what about being in heat then cold, the force of landings and takeoffs.
    Planes are machines. It's not a matter of how they will break, but when.
    Airlines can't afford to have lame maintenance.
    Planes fly thousands of feet above ground. And significant break, means people could fall to their deaths.
    We aren't talking about cars. Bad maintenance on a car could be an accident you can survive.
    Something like this should NEVER happen.
    The airline is lucky everyone was seat belted in and that the pilots were able to keep control of the plane and that the nose then separate from the plane.
    Boeing needs to work on making sure bulletins are adhered too and proper changes are made.

Quite well, put together feasibility and conclusion, making it easy to comprehend, exactly why, it did what it did. I see what the stress specialist meant, with the analysis of the flight attendance, being 'sucked' out. Causing extreme pressure, with the blockade (unfortunately), of her 'head'.
