If there is a loud bang in the garden, it does not necessarily have to be the neighbor’s lawnmower that misfires. Though that’s more likely than the July 18 incident in Chicago. There, a family was abruptly disturbed at lunch when there was a loud rumble in their front yard, as with “Simple Flying” is to read. The cause of the noise was an “object larger than a car” that fell from the sky, as the father of the American aviation authority said in a call following the initial shock. As it turned out, it was the emergency slide of a Boeing 767 coming from Zurich and landing at Chicago Airport. The 155 passengers and ten crew members on board didn’t notice anything. It was only on the ground that maintenance workers discovered something quite large was missing from the plane, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). How this might happen is not yet clear. In any case, this is not the first time that an airplane has lost an evacuation slide. In 2019 the same thing happened on one Delta flight on approach to Boston Logan Airport. It was also a Boeing 767 back then. One lost in 2014 Boeing 757-300 von Thomas Cook Airlines a wing embedded evacuation slide over the UK. A cover had come off.
