hi there

i was looking for something else and came upon this;

i had never seen this report so i passed it on

i think it is useful to look at all the failures and accidents.

      it helps keep us safe.

             I LIKE SOMEONE COMMENT THAT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A OVER PRESSURIZATION

interesting idea and good food for thought.

OBVIOUSLY A PILOT WHO KEPT HIS COOL

Lancair IVP depressurisation at FL250

This happened in Australia a few days ago. The window separated while in the cruise at FL250. The aircraft was landed safely with I understand, no injuries or ill effects (it didn't mention the state of the pilot's underwear!).

It will be interesting to hear the full report to see whether there are any consequences for operators of the IVP.
