We blamed UA 232 on improper inspection based on finding residue of fluorescent penetrant vaporized from the crack surface of the disc remnant. Pretty early to blame "missed or improper inspection". Very sad a passenger lost her life-prayers for her and her family. That is how it’s supposed to work.Ĭrew did a great job, probably a good thing the captain had fighter experience to know how to breathe during the explosive decompression event. Let the investigation come to some conclusion based on facts and science and hope that something constructive can come from it. Or maybe you could just be sad for the loss of innocent life and realize it could happen it anyone. You will be able to tell everyone you warned them and no one would listen. Although you have made it abundantly clear you have an ax to grind with Southwest I would say there is plenty of malfeasance thought the industry to go around.Ĭhances are someday you will be right and Southwest will have a major accident with mass loss of life and you can thump your chest in triumph.

I was 100 percent correct, It was a cowl failure that failed, and I would be willing to bet that it will come down to maintenance related issues. I was down voted because I said it was not an uncontained failure. But I have said nothing wrong, and have broken no policies. I know the culture of SWA and I left there because I was not going to put my license a risk to keep their planes flying to substandard levels. I have said nothing but factual truths, but yet getting down voted!
