    From Season 3 Episode 6 "Bomb On Board": December 11, 1994 - En route to Tokyo from Manila, the pilots aboard PA 434 are jolted by an explosion. An explosion had gone off in the cabin and the damage is extensive: there’s a two-foot hole in the fuselage and cables linking the cockpit to the ailerons and wing flaps are severed. Far from their destination, the pilots have no option but to attempt an emergency landing. The flight crew rein in the unwieldy plane and land it safely.
    One of the passengers, a Japanese businessman, perished in the blast. The explosion was located directly under his seat and severed him in two. Ten other passengers were also injured. Miraculously these were the only casualties.

      Yes.. A lot of people say: Why does the Philippines has so many security guards.. And maybe not respect them..
      They really dont earn a lot, yet work a lot and often get misused in terms of having to do additional jobs to their original job, being a page boy, serving food, carrying luggage, taking phones, and other stuff.. for a fraction of those what others earn..
      Yet they often bring themselves in danger when really something happens and cant even carry real guns with them and other stuff because they are not law enforcement.
      Time to respect them more, maybe make the day where the doorman called the police the day of the security people, and honoring them a bit more (worldwide)

Those actions in themselves demonstrate the courage of others. Many shy away from performing those acts of love towards another, let alone when that person is at their most vulnerable.

      Maybe It was because he was a former Navy pilot. And he went through a lot of training as well as a navy pilot so maybe he was taught what to do if a plane has a bomb. And he probably worked around bombs to know what to do. And he was probably taught what to do if Obama explodes while being on a plane as well so all of the training that he probably went through it kicked in

    Ramsey Yousef was incarcerated in the most secure unit inside the USP Florence ADMAX in Colorado called Range 13 in which he was incarcerated under the so-called non human contact restriction. He even didn't take his one hour of recreation inside the ADX Florence supermax prison for several years because he didn't allow to let the officers to see his body because of the procedure of the strip search in which he has to strip down his body completely! During this time he was visited by the chaplain - an orthodox priest during this particular time - and he (Ramsey Yousef) asked if he could get a Bible to read it and to study it and because of his studies of the Bible he has renounced Islam and converted to Christianity and he even eats pork and is taking his recreation times since this time! Sure, the BOP and the Justice Department do not believe in his actions of becoming a believer in Christianity and they are thinking that this was only a trick to get more freedoms inside the ADX Florence supermax prison, but he has since then left the Range 13 unit and is now in one of the General Population Units and can be together in the recreation yard with a small group of other inmates to talk with while he has his one hour of recreation inside a slightly bigger cage as his own cell in the Gen-pop Unit there! He even can talk with Theodore John Kaczynski and many other inmates there! That's the information about him I have! Greetings from Captain Sarah Sutter (Boeing 747-400F/Boeing 747-8F)

    Back in 1979 i was flying from heathrow to aldergrove belfast. Before i was allowed to board the plane my luggage was searched, they took my cleansing lotion from me which was less than 100ml. Also we didn't take off because there was more luggage than passengers. So we all had to disembark and pick out our luggage, the 3 suitcases left over when then taken away checked and blown up. Which proved to be explosive. Because of the security of the staff we survived. Shame they weren't so vigorous back in 1994.

    The aircraft was not used in passenger service after the incident. The plane returned to service as a cargo airliner.

    A few years ago I was on board a THAI 747 getting ready to fly from Athens to Bangkok. It was 4 PM and after the air hostess have closed the door the plane wouldn't move for almost an hour, then all of a sudden the captain announced that we were all to disembark the aircraft and go back to the terminal. Everybody was frustrated and had initially thought the aircraft had some sort of technical issues and followed suit (the captain never mentioned technical issue as he made his announcement on the PA) But we began to sense that something was wrong as flight crews hastened each passenger to leave the plane quickly like they were in a rush to empty the plane. Inside the terminal we were all gathered in one lounge and watched in disbelief as airport authority towed the plane with a pushback truck away from the terminal building followed by several firetrucks with water hoses pointed at the aircraft. This is when we realised that this was not a technical issue with the aircraft. We were stuck in the terminal building for 6 hours with rumours spreading around that an "extra luggage" had made its way onto the aircraft cargo hold without the passenger boarding. Then at 10:00 pm they brought a bus and drove us to the stricken 747, the bus drove further and further from the main airport area so much so that I thought we were going outside the airport!?! Then finally they let us out onto a remote tarmac right on the edge of the airfield. Luggages were strewn about everywhere on the ground, they told each of us to go out one by one and identify our luggages and show our boarding pass to authorities then reboard the plane. This went on for another hour or two as each checked luggage is reloaded back onto the plane. Then we finally took off never to be told whether they've actually found the luggage that the terrorist have planted or not. The flight that was supposed to land in the early morning ended up in Bangkok in late afternoon. No apology or compensation was ever made and the incident never made it to any media outlet. This was by far the worst flight experience in my life but I'm also glad we didnt fall victim to the terrorist's plot.

    Congratulations to the engineers who designed and made that aircraft, as the light structure was still strong enough to withstand that explosion for which it was not designed. If that engineered structure did not hold the additional created forces , all people would have died, including that brave pilot and crew. Also, it was remarkable how the redundant engineering systems available to the pilot left him with enough control to land safely. Every flight necessitates the teamwork of a group of people depending on each other.
    Unfortunately engineering in the wrong hands can hurt many people and no matter how one looks at it, engineering is the reason why the world has become so polluted and so dangerous and paradoxically, it is engineering that will find solutions to the problems we have created for ourselves. If that flight did not contain the damaging bomb, it would still have burnt over 100 Tons of fuel which would need to pollute over three tons of air per second for four hours ( approx. 40,000 tons of air) and that is a lot of pollution damaging to our environment. Flying is not all that innocent, and as long as it is convenient for us, we really do not care what damage to our environment it produces in addition to shipping, Industry and coal and oil, atomic and gas burning electrical power stations. We tend to focus on the damage to us that can be pinpointed to a terrorist and a criminal, when in reality there are more invisible criminals in our society, flying over people's heads with 100 tons of fuel, without their permission, all because a law is passed that they can do it!
