Emergency! Door falls off aircraft (Indonesia)
An emergency door of Sriwijaya Air flight number SJ 039 broke off as passengers were boarding at Raja Haji Fisabilillah airport in Tanjungpinang, Riau Islands, on Tuesday.
The aircraft, scheduled to depart
for Soekarno-Hatta airport, Jakarta, at 7 a.m. local time, had to delay take off
until the damaged door was replaced.
"Shortly after I took my seat, an
emergency exit door in the right side of the aircraft suddenly detached and the
emergency chute also opened," one of the passengers told Antara news agency.
