        The window was several rows back from the engine. The plane was in motion and the parts blew back and through the window at the speed of a bullet. But keep telling yourself you have control over everything 😆

        Exactly! Plus, they said the Cabin pressure dropped quickly, so I’m sure people were using the oxygen bags.

        Well, considering that this is the first passenger death on a US airline in 9 years, and US airlines have over 700 million passenger enplanement per year, I would say government safety regulations have been pretty good.
