Did you hear about this? Terror at 26,000 Feet
Dec. 28, 2005 — Twenty minutes after taking off on Monday, Alaska Airlines Flight 536 lost cabin pressure at 26,000 feet and began to plunge. The pilot of the MD-80 jet, en route from Seattle to Burbank, Calif., immediately headed back to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport for an emergency landing.
"The first thing that we heard was a pop, and our ears started to pop rather fast," passenger Damon Zwicker told "Good Morning America" today. "And then cold air started to come in from the vents above, which was a little bit scary. We knew something was wrong. From there, there was a period of time where I'm not sure exactly how long it was, probably 30 to 45 seconds, I think, when there was another kind of crash and the oxygen masks flipped down."
