NTSB chairman Robert Sumwalt said the failed engine on the Southwest Airlines jet is missing a fan blade. Investigators found evidence of metal fatigue at the point where the blade broke off. Southwest Airlines will immediately begin inspections of its entire fleet of more than 710 Boeing 737s.
An engine on a Southwest Airlines flight with 149 people aboard exploded and broke apart in mid-air on Tuesday, killing one passenger and nearly sucking another out of a shattered window, according to airline and federal authorities and witness and media accounts. The plane, a Boeing 737-700 which was bound to Dallas from New York, made an emergency landing in Philadelphia. The death of 43-year-old Jennifer Riordan on Flight 1380 was the first in a U.S. commercial aviation accident since 2009, according to National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) statistics.

The Ford Mustang turns 54 today. Despite being well into middle age, passion for the Mustang and all its variants and offshoots has never been stronger. Sure, the sales figures can tell you a lot. Ford sold 125,809 last year, more than any other sports coupe in the world. But that number doesn't say it all. Really, it takes just one visit to your local cars and coffee or a snowy celebration at Ford World Headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan, to see what I mean.
Riordan was a mother of two children and a vice president at Wells Fargo.
The passenger who died on board Southwest Flight 1380 has been identified as Jennifer Riordan, 43. The passenger who died on board a Southwest Airlines on Tuesday has been identified as Jennifer Riordan of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Riordan's death was made public this afternoon during a media briefing by National Transportation Safety Board chairman Robert Sumwalt.
