Something similar did happen in the UK to a BAC 1-11 I think it was. I
recall reading details of the incident.

I didn't say something similar didn't happen. I said the specific incident
described didn't happen.

I didn't say something similar didn't happen. I said the specific incident
described didn't happen.

The details weren't quite right - but it did - happen. It wasn't a 747
and he didn't die - ok?

I believe you stated:
I haven't seen the details of the event as originally stated, but your
description doesn't sound plausible to me. There would be significant
airflow through a window, no doubt, but I doubt it would be enough to
suck a person (whatever is meant by that), and freezing to death would
require more than some localized frostbite.


So yer wrong about that too

Wrong about what? Nothing in the text you quoted was contradicted.

"a pilot died in a similar
incident in 1998 when a windshield on a 747 fell off and the pilot was
sucked and froze to death. "

The pilot didn't die
It wasn't in 1998
It wasn't a 747
The windshield didn't fall off (it blew out)
The pilot was only partly sucked out
He didn't freeze to death.

Other than that, the statement was correct
