Air passengers' mid-flight ****** as hole is blown in Qantas 747 fuselage
Passengers on a London to Melbourne flight have described their ****** after a faulty door "popped" in midair blowing a hole in the fuselage.
Qantas flight QF30, with 300 passengers and crew on board, plunged 20,000ft after the faulty door caused an "explosive" depressurisation.
The Boeing 747 had just taken off from a stopover in Hong Kong when the incident happened. As the plane dropped from 30,000ft to 10,000ft, oxygen masks fell from the ceiling.
