Jet engine explodes, passenger sucked halfway out

Better not get behind the wheel anytime soon then either. Fatal traffic accidents happen every day, so that must mean you're next there too.

lol...ya, hard to remember that sometimes - but it's reality. I'll take the window seats.

Randy, not familiar with that family of engines. Mostly dealt with GE CF6-50's, 80A's and C2's. Did a ton of blade lubes. Usually the moly coating would start flaking off and you would get a N1 vibe. Usually at .9- 1.2 (coming into Tulsa for a MBV) they would schedule a lube. Pull the blades, clean both the blades and hub, recoat and reinstall. The A sump seal would sometimes fail, allowing oil to get into the spinner, which would also show up as a vibe..

I need to come to work with you one of these days, I can be a wrench bitch.

I always prefer the aisle seats, easier access to the restroom if needed.

He's in the retirement home (hangar), I'm out on the flight line. It's a fun job. Get to see/do some cool stuff and get paid for it.

I've now flown on 4 Southwest flights since the accident, sat next to the window, and didn't get sucked out, I think we'll be ok.
