Jeju Air 737 crash South Korea

That's another thing, why does the cockpit and/or passenger compartment have to take on smoke from either engine? It just boggles the mind.

All I can say is Boeing and airline companies had better get their act together because passengers have filed a class action lawsuit for that door that flew off - for $1 Billion. It's not just the door flying off - it's the trauma caused by their negligence (in their own words).

As for S. Korean aviation standards and that particular airline's maintenance and crew operations/training, well we will be seeing what are the underlying issues after they comb through their safety operational standards, which they raided from the airline offices.

Because the pressurization system uses bleed air from the engines to operate. So if the engine is smoking ahead of where the bleed air is taken in, it gets into the cockpit or cabin, depending on which engine it is.


I’m sure they suffered a billion dollars in trauma. It wouldn’t matter if it was a minor pressure issue, they’d still sue for the same amount. They won’t get anywhere near that and it will be settled. Funny how money always fixes trauma.
