Door of Plane Ripped Off During Flight Found: Details

A part of an Alaska Airlines aircraft that was ripped off during a flight three days ago has been found in Portland, USA. According to CNN, referencing the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), the discovery was made by a school teacher named Bob, who found the fuselage door in his backyard and reported his "discovery" to the agency.

It has been reported that federal investigators had requested public assistance in locating the detached door and were planning to use helicopters or drones for the search. The NTSB explained that the discovery of the missing part would provide key insights into why it was torn off from the aircraft.
