just want to call out -
The engine literally exploded, and they made it home via the rest of the plane OK (minus the unfortunate passenger).
In the past this would have cut hydrolics (this happened with a DC10 rear engine exploding) and then losing control. Major props to the pilots and boeing (all SW planes are 737s I believe).
- ashtonkem 6y agoYes, Southwest only flies 737s in order to simplify their maintenance logistics and to ensure that every pilot they have can fly every plane.
