En la mañana estaba viendo las noticias y vi lo de un vuelo de United desviado a Denver luego de turbulencia fuerte que ocasiono heridos dentro de la cabina, segun testigos una mujer salio expulsada del asiento y de rebote golpeo la ventanilla estrellandola, este es el tercer incidente este año de ese tipo, muchos no tomamos en cuenta la recomendacion de mantener el cinturon abrochado durante el vuelo mientras estemos sentado y he aqui las posibles consecuencias. Aqui parte de la nota en Ingles y la liga
" Flight 967 was flying over Kansas at an altitude of about 34,000 feet when it hit the heavy turbulence, said FAA spokesman Mike Fergus. It was carrying 255 passengers and 10 crew members.
The turbulence was “just a huge up and down,” said passenger Kaoma Bechaz, a 19-year-old Australian in the United States visiting her boyfriend.
Bechaz told the Post that the woman sitting next to her hit her head on the side of the cabin, leaving a crack above the window, and a girl across the aisle flew into the air and hit the ceiling.
Bechaz said she wasn’t thrown around because her seat belt was tight.
The crew decided to land the Boeing 777 in Denver to tend to the injured, United Airlines spokeswoman Megan McCarthy said.
A 12-year-old was taken to Children’s Hospital in Aurora, but a spokeswoman there didn’t know the nature of the child’s injury."
