“United Airlines Boeing flight turns chaotic when oxygen masks are ‘inadvertently deployed’ mid-flight”

If I were there, I would SCREAM. (not that it does any good, but it is an appropriate response)

Plane is almost 30 years old.

Something wrong with the equipment - it’s more concerning that only a few dropped than if all of them had dropped.

The individual that ran to the door probably needs to go on the no-fly list.

“...None of the flight crew nor cabin crew had ever heard the announcement before...”

Why have they not been trained for things that could happen while in flight???? This is totally ridiculous...

Thank God I don’t ever fly anymore...

Airplane II film scene.

Striker: You got to get those people away from that bomb.

Mary: Well, what should I say?

Striker : Anything. Just don’t let Solucci think that we’re onto him.

Mary: I’ll do my best.

Mary: [Over Intercom] Attention ladies and gentlemen, please. Would everybody move to the lounge who is not carrying a bomb.

[Everyone on the plane stands up and screams]

Amazing, no Boeing bashers yet??? Especially the annoying “I ain’t going” guy.

I think the Moody Blues told me to “breathe deep...” when I see some like this and then recite some poetry. Maybe sing a little song.

I’ve had this happen on a biz jet I was flying. Flow of ox causes the masks to drop. In our case the valve that controls the ox flow failed to the open position. Oops.

Look on the bright side. At least the masks dropped.

They should add some Nitrous oxide N2O to the O2 Tank. May as well be laughing if you're toast anyway.
