  1. Hi, Shel and Neville,

    Listening to today’s podcast this evening as I work late…

    It sounds like not much news was available when you recorded your podcast. I did a Google News search about 7 pm Pacific time, and found these links to a Seattle P-I reporter’s page and stories:

    James Wallace on Aerospace
    Terrified at 26,000 feet
    http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/aerospace/archives/100927.asp
    This page appears to be a compilation of links to a number of stories and info on the incident.

    Loss of pressure forces airliner to land
    Hole in fuselage found as Alaska jet returns to Sea-Tac
    http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/253673_alaska28.html
    This is a link to Wallace’s story online about the incident.
