Good write up mike thanks for posting ---- as said in a post earlier
(before I read this)
whatever teh cause the industry will benefit by another page to what
if ? Being added .
The comment "it has never happened before" should not be lost on any

The Sunday Mail, which I read before this post and the URL above, said John
was 'veging out' which I thought a bit surprising. However, if the flight
crew's oxy bottles blew causing the decompression it's no bloody wonder -
what they would normally use to survive the decompression was what had
caused it in the first place.
Scary if so....
