The minute you said this you lost all credibility   Flight  is notable because a big hole appeared in the aircraft Flight  is notable because there were injuriesEARACHES  As for damage to an object or damage to people I think most people would say that physical injuries to people are far more serious than repairable damage to an aircraft YEAH AN EXPLOSION THAT RIPS A HOLE IN THE SIDE OF AN AIRCRAFT IS MUCH LESS SERIOUS THAN EARACHES  You keep ignoring the potentially serious injuries that cause  people to be sent to hospital ARE YOU AN ATTORNEY HARRY I BET THERE IS SOME LAWYER GETTING READY TO FILE A LAWSUIT AGAINST RYANAIR USING THEM EXACT SAME WORDS PERMANENT EAR DAMAGE MAYBE THE PILOT SHOULD HAVE TOLD THEM TO SUCK ON SOME CANDY OR CHEW GUM BEFORE HE STARTED THE DESCENT  As someone who claims to know so much about aviation you might want to acquaint yourself with httpwwwavheraldcom If an incident is a C crash or an A accident on that site it is serious enough to be considered for inclusion HA IT STILL MAKES ME LAUGH EVERYTIME I READ THAT COMMENT  It is at wwwavherald com which takes it beyond the tabloid journalism and classifies it as an accident rather than an incident so there is no reason why this adequately sourced addition should be removed especially when the dangerous approaches paragraph remains OH YEAH THE AVHERALD THERE WEBSITE IS TRULY AMAZING AND THE CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM IS BEYOND BELIEF EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT A DECOMPRESSION IS MUCH MORE SERIOUS THAN PILOTS ATTEMPTING TO FLY AN IFR APPROACH WHEN THE ILS IS OUT OF SERVICE WITH LOW CLOUDS AND NOT REALIZING IT UNTIL THEY BROKE OUT OF THE CLOUDS A FEW HUNDRED FEET AND REALIZED THEY WERE ALREADY HALF WAY OVER THE RUNWAY GOING TO FAST AND TEHN  AND NOT REALIZING IT OR A PILOT THAT INSTEAD OF DOING A MISSED APPROACH BANKS THE AIRCRAFT HARD TO THE RIGHT AT LOW ALTITUDE AND PROCEEDS TO CIRCLE BACK TO THE AIRPORT A FEW HUNDRED FEET ABOVE THE GROUND A LOW SPEED   Nothing wrong with the plane Planes just routinely depressurise for no reason do theyNOT EVERYDAY BUT PROBABLY ONE OF THE MORE COMMON EVENTS ITS AMAZING THAT WE DONT HAVE THOUSANDS OF DEAD PEOPLE EVERY YEAR BECAUSE DECOMPRESSION IS SUCH A SERIOUS INCIDENT IN YOUR OPINION  Also as someone who claims to know about aviation you should know that rapid decompression and descent can lead to serious inner ear problems The injuries may have been all in their heads but that is because its where their inner ears are The were NO injuries in the QANTAS  incident Despite being more spectacular it was not as serious as the Ryanair incident I THINK YOU ARE CONFUSING RAPID DECOMPRESSION WITH EXPLOSIVE DECOMPRESSION ALSO THE PILOTS GET WARNINGS AND THE MASKS DROP BEFORE PRESSURIZATION ALTITUDE GETS TOO HIGH SO ESSENTIALLY THEY ARE MOST LIKELY DOWN BELOW FEET BEFORE ANYTHING SERIOUS CAN HAPPEN BUT YOUR SO RIGHT THAT THE QUANTAS INCIDENT IS LESS SERIOUS THAT IS WHY THE NEXT DAY THE RYANAIR PLANE WAS FLYING AGAIN AND THE QANTAS FLIGHT WAS GETTING THE HOLE IN THE SIDE OF FUSELAGE FIXED   HARRY MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU SHOULD FOR THE FAA IT WOULD BE MUCH EASIER YEAH I KNOW I WAS DRUNK WHILE I WAS FLYING BUT NOBODY GOT HURT
