United Airlines Flight 811 (Boeing 747-122, registration N4713U) on February 24, 1989.
It was a scheduled international flight from Los Angeles to Sydney, Australia, with stops in Honolulu, Hawaii, and Auckland, New Zealand. After an uneventful stop in Honolulu, the aircraft (with 337 passengers and 18 crew) took off around 1:52–1:53 a.m. local time, bound for Auckland.
About 16–17 minutes after takeoff, while climbing through roughly 22,000–23,000 feet over the Pacific (around 60–100 miles south of Honolulu), the forward lower-lobe cargo door on the right side suddenly opened and separated. This caused an explosive decompression. The door swung outward with great force, tearing away a large section of the adjacent fuselage skin (roughly 10–20+ feet in key dimensions) and part of the cabin structure/floor above it.
Nine passengers seated in the affected business-class rows (primarily seats in rows involving positions near the damage, such as around rows 8–12 on the right side) were ejected from the aircraft along with their seats and were lost at sea; their bodies were never recovered. Debris also damaged the two right-side engines (Nos. 3 and 4), which lost power or caught fire and had to be shut down, plus some flap and wing leading-edge damage. Several other people (including cabin crew) were injured.
Captain David Cronin and the flight crew declared an emergency, turned back toward Honolulu, dumped fuel, and managed a successful emergency landing at Honolulu International Airport roughly 20–40 minutes after the event (landing around 2:30–2:33 a.m.). The remaining 346 people on board evacuated safely via slides. The aircraft sustained substantial damage but was later repaired and returned to service (re-registered as N4724U).

Cause
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) determined the probable cause was the sudden in-flight opening of the forward cargo door, leading to the explosive decompression. This was attributed primarily to a faulty switch or wiring in the door control system that allowed electrical actuation of the latches toward the unlatched position after the door had been closed (and before or during the flight). A design deficiency in the cargo door’s locking mechanisms made them susceptible to deformation, allowing the door to unlatch even after proper latching and locking. A prior 1987 cargo-door incident on a Pan Am 747 and delayed corrective actions by Boeing and the FAA were also cited as contributing factors.
An initial NTSB report leaned toward possible ground-crew latching issues (as the door was lost at sea and recovery took time), but recovery of the door from deep water (~14,000 feet) and further evidence (including a later related incident) led to the revised 1992 finding focused on the electrical/wiring fault and design weaknesses.
The event is often remembered for the dramatic structural failure and successful return of the heavily damaged aircraft under difficult conditions (including storms in the area and the need to land overweight with limited systems). It prompted design and maintenance changes related to 747 cargo doors.

Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale is a real Luhya man, he built five bungalows in one compound. One for each of his four wives and a fifth one for himself. This is where the bullfighter spends time alone during moments of solitude and when he wants to be with his guests. This is also where he spends time when he wants conjugal rights but does not want to interact and meet with his kids and grandchildren. He simply calls one after another😅😅😅😅. Money is good

You can't expect thrills and stability in one person. The one that offers stability lives a boring life. And the one that offers thrills lives a chaotic life. Choose what works for you.

This season Chelsea is only playing the EPL, FA, and EFL cup.......and you expect us not to win the EPL? With Alonso as the manager? Tushindwe kwani sisi ni wanawake?

Life is often you vs you, and somebody has to die.

@_fels1 The problem with such forums is there is a person who wants you to agree to their reality and if you don't agree, emotions kick in and the next logical action is to shout. Never indulge in political, religious or relationship matters, most of the people argue with their heart.

When the 747 and A380 line up, you stop and watch!

SICKLE CELL.

If you are genotype SS, do genetic testing before raising a family. This will save your children a life of sickle cell crises.
Together we can create awareness and contain sickle cell disease.

It was a very bad day in the office for the Mikoras after their “assets recovery mission” was terminated indefinitely before it even began. The hard-eyed fellows had already coordinated a surprise ambush against the son of Adonija, who was walking helter skelter toward his hacienda like a man carrying government secrets in a polythene bag.

But little did they know, the Ninja had already sensed danger & armed himself with Kogalo’s RPG. Before the Mikoras could even smell his wealth, son of Adonija launched a stone missile with the accuracy of a military drone,, Chesaa! That stone flew through the air like it had been sponsored by NASA itself.

The brick landed directly on one Mikora head who was majestically seated on a motorbike like a komba mwiko. The impact was so serious the man disconnected from the bike spiritually, emotionally and physically at the same time.

For a moment the Mikoras forgot about asset recovery mission and immediately switched to survival mode. The matofali was moving like a bullet from a sophisticated rifle imported straight from Ukraine. One of the Mikora ran so fast his slippers remained behind to continue the mission alone.

Luckily for them, their fortieth day had not yet arrived. They escaped the scene nursing serious injuries, confusion and unnecessary embarrassment. Reports indicate one of them is still explaining to his family how a mere pedestrian turned into a one man anti-riot police unit within seconds. Ni Mbaya,, Put STONE!!🥲

No doubt our Pride of Africa @KenyaAirways is just too beautiful, the theme song is pure nostalgic.

I just learned today during my reads that the iconic Kenya Airways theme song was composed in 1993 by British production duo Matthew and Sheila Peevers.

It is a beautiful rendition of birds chirping, traditional African flutes and drums .

This background song actually doesn't have a specific name given to it by its composers , but it is commonly referred to as Kenya Airways Brand Mnemonic
or the Kenya Airways Boarding Music .
Others even refer to it as Pride of Africa theme.

To many others this theme song is regarded as Kenya's second national anthem.

Anytime I hear this song whether boarding KQ or even scrolling online I just smile and feel happy, it is too special for us Kenyans.

No doubt I included I love our national carrier @KenyaAirways
