How frequently does permanently-bolted door plugs fall off? Show me another example of a structural component of the airframe itself just failing without some external event causing it. Go ahead. I’ll wait.
It’s not that common. And every other example of similar depressurizations were caused by something hitting the window, or similar. (For example 5+ years ago a bit of engine struck the window on an airbus. Iirc, the engine was hit from a bird strike or something.)
A door plug is a panel/frame that goes into the the structural airframe to seal it up. Imagine bricking over a doorway because it’s no longer a doorway.
What vox just did was insist that “incidents” are the same. This would be like a state DMV saying “accidents are the same!” But forgetting to mention that there’s a much greater percentage of fatal accidents than previous years
Not panels, panel. One. One panel ripped off.
You’re demonstrating exactly here the point that the author was making. You seem to think bad things are happening more than they really are.
No.
You completely missed my point.
