Summary
The incident prompted regulators to require airlines to inspect the fan blades on a more regular basis, essentially every nine to 12 months. At the time, the 43-year-old was the first person killed in a U.S. passenger airline accident since 2009. Local Indigenous group upset over not being consulted on Canada.
Furthermore, Video circulating on social media, which CBS News could not independently verify, purportedly showed the inside of the plane after the incident, with a broken window and oxygen masks hanging from the ceiling, but no passengers visible. The passenger, described as a tourist from Serbia on a flight from Thessaloniki in Greece to Memmingen in Germany, was hospitalized with friction burns but was otherwise in good condition, authorities said.
