    • Abstract:
      A Southwest Airlines 737-300 made an emergency landing in Charleston, W.Va., after a one-by-one-foot hole appeared near an overhead storage bin half an hour after takeoff. Flight 2294 had taken off from Nashville and was heading to Baltimore when the problem occurred at 30,000 feet. The cabin lost pressure and the oxygen masks dropped. The airline has begun an inspection of all its 737-300 airliners. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
