      Skywalker7897 I thought she did. The tower guy in Philadelphia even seemed astonished & was about to ask again then decided to focus on the plane landing & keeping a cool head like Tammy the pilot. She requested fire & medical & said they needed to slow down & meet them directly where the plane came to a stop. I mean she was so calm & focused it was only until that plane landed perfectly that you could hear ANY sort of stress reaction. When she said: ”Thank you Lord, thank you Lord!”

    The pilot of the flight, Tammie Jo Shults, wrote a book called "nerves of steel." It includes her earlier life and also includes her point of view of what happened during the flight. I highly recommend reading the book as it is a good read. Also, 5:18 the wording was, "We are not going down. We are going to Philly."

      He was well intended for sure but he was talking way too much, asking unnecessary questions (like confirming someone was out the window), giving unnecessary information (like about the other SW plane in the area), and making mistakes (like cunfusing runway 27l for 27r). He was more nervous than the captain herself. Should have taken a breath, remembered that the pilots priority is not to talk to him but to fly a crippled plane, and just keep it at the essential and accurate information, while seeking an ensuring and calm tone of voice if possible. His intentions were good though so God bless him

It could be any criteria quota, not just minorities. Ie: We need to accept atleast 500 people who have farted obnoxiously loud during a math exam on a Tuesday. How many people would qualify? Not many. How many top tier people would qualify? Even fewer, but they have to hire atleast 500 people who farted obnoxiously loud during a math exam on a Tuesday so they will hire some less than top-tier candidates.

      Anyone susceptible to hysteria will be weeded out by the psychology tests also.
      I'm not saying that women can do any job as well as men. Like say, weight lifting and towing heavy stuff, that's done better by men in general (if the man is of average build and in decent shape).
      But with flying, it's just that women are smaller on average, meaning they are less susceptible to 'black out' or 'red out.' Because the blood in their bodies has less distance to travel to the body's top or lower parts.

    What is truly heartbreaking, is when you read that Jennifer Riordan died due to severe organ damage, hypoxia, and exposure.
    One of the doctors said, "..the window itself was not deformed on the airliner, which is terribly distressing... This is because the human rib cage on an adult, is usually much wider than the frame around a airliner windowpane. So if the aircraft didn't deform, it must mean that Jennifer's ribcage deformed in order to fit through it. Her hip joints I'm the only thing that prevented her from being completely ejected from the aircraft.. ..The deformity would have meant the bones crushing her organs, potentially putting pressure on her heart, and along with the hypoxia and freezing exposure she would have perished almost certainly whatever happened..
    ...It's terribly sad. Our prayers and thoughts are with her family."
    This was printed in an official bulletin, the following day. And this quote taken from the press interview conducted by one of the medical officers who performed the preliminary autopsy for the coroner at university medical centre, Philadelphia.
    I cannot imagine, for a moment, the fear, and foreboding, as well as the horrific pain, and suffocation, that that poor woman must have been going through for the 5 or 6 minutes before passing out.

      Aircraft are pressurized with air drawn in from outside which is why no supplemental oxygen is needed as long as the cabin pressure is maintained at 10-11 psi. The outside air contains approximately the same proportion of oxygen to nitrogen (20% O2 : 78% N) as from sea level to over 100,000'.

    Sadly, this event marked a milestone for Southwest.. it was their first fatality in their Airline's long history. Their safety record is all the more remarkable, when you realize that most airplane disasters take place in the first minutes after takeoff or the last minutes before landing - and since Southwest is a low-cost, regional airline, their planes are often taking off and landing multiple times each day, far more often than a long distance flight. So their fleet of 737's get lots of wear, but their maintenance staff is party of their company's "family" , and they keep them in top shape in spite of their workload.

    Wow! Talk about a well-trained cohesive professional crew and controllers. These people had nerves of steel and saved lives! I’ve always admired determined aviators like this and truly cannot thank them enough for their heroism!

    I'm not 100% sure if I saw actual blood on the windows but God the damage looks awful. Rest in peace Jennifer 😔
