A passenger was reportedly nearly sucked out of a cabin window in mid-air on a Ryanair plane.
"Reportedly", hmm, a second hand story there details a bit shakey I think. Third hand now I suppose, or is it more?
Witnesses told local media the man, said to be a Serbian citizen in his 60s, was left hanging head first out of the window as far as his shoulders for several minutes, before other passengers on the flight managed to pull him back inside.
In a statement, Ryanair said its Friday morning flight from the Greek city of Thessaloniki to Germany's Memmingen returned "shortly after take-off when a passenger window dislodged inflight".
Media reports in Greece and Germany quoted passengers describing a loud bang followed by the window breaking and oxygen masks falling from the ceiling shortly after the Boeing 737 had taken off.
It's hot out there again. Got a couple of hours of Free Octopus Energy 1 this morning, to do washing, which will dry outside! This is the good life..
We went to see David Bowie this day in 2002, and we're off to some performance of Ziggy Startdust at Royal Festival Hall tomorrow.
Sunny intervals and a moderate breeze, 17 - 24℃.
