Southwest Boeing 737-700, uncontained engine failure in flight. Passenger compartment compromised by shrapnel, depressurized, one passenger killed. Fortunately it was able to get wheels on the ground in Philly.

Flights cancelled for engine inspections.

Interestingly, Southwest suddenly has a barrage of ads up hiring aircraft mechanics. I guess either they fired the idiots responsible, and/or they're gearing up for what they know is going to be an ugly process.

Might also be time for them to rotate aircraft and set up a better system to monitor maintenance.
