Do you think a memo went out the next day to check all O2 tanks and defibrillators on their aircraft?

["Two doctors and two nurses were aboard and tried to administer oxygen from a second tank, which also was empty..."].
If true, AA will be paying big time to settle this case.

Looks like AA has a problem here.

Uh oh. The oxygen tanks should have been checked on the pre-flight safety inspection by the flight attendants. Or at least that is how we did it when I used to fly. Any inoperable safety equipment had to be replaced prior to flight. I flew with a different airline. Perhaps AA does it differently.
I suppose the gauge could have indicated full, and the tanks were actually empty, but with two tanks having the same problem, I am leaning toward a lax pre-flight check.

Terrible story. I bet all those little mini bottles of booze were full. Makes you wonder if the oxygen tanks they tell you about would work if the plane lost pressure. Scary stuff.

What about the emergency oxygen masks that drop from the ceiling? Did anyone think to try those?

Lovely.
Wonder how much inspection the lady had to endure to get on the flight.
To: Paleo Conservative
I wonder what her blood sugar was?
To: Paleo Conservative
She should have had her own oxygen supply if it was required.
Oxygen will not stop heart failure.
Way more to this story. Like the other side.

OMG, I bet the gaggle of lawyers waiting at the gate in Brooklyn was staggering!
They can smell a lawsuit from miles away. Especially NY lawyers.

Just write out a check with a string of zeroes.
The lawyer will decide the single digit to put on the front.
Prayers for the family.
No Cheers, unfortunately.

A "box," possibly a defibrillator, also was applied but didn't function effectively, he said.That's a fine bit of journalistic research.
Full disclosure: I friggin' HATE American Airlines. ;)

A "box," possibly a defibrillator, also was applied but didn't function effectively, he said. I'd be willing to bet that the defibrillator, if that's what it was, functioned exactly as it was supposed to. An AED only advises the operator to administer a shock in a limited number of scenarios.
