Enrique, I saw a program about that incedent. Quite frightening. I also saw an AAI documentary where a pilot of something like a 737 was partially sucked out of the cockpit at high altitude when his window blew out. His body was pinned against the top of the aircraft and his legs still inside the cockpit. The co-pilot managed a truely awesome emergency landing with way too much fuel onboard etc..... and he brought the unfamiliar aircraft in, and the captain survived with only minor injuries.

"and always remember that reality is stranger than fiction!"
I agree.

Someone was smiling down on these people.
