The Independent newspaper reports on what might seem to some like a message from a higher authority !
An emergency slide that fell off a Delta flight shortly after takeoff from the JFK Airport on Friday reportedly washed up outside the beach house of a lawyer whose firm is suing Boeing over safety issues.
Jake Bissell-Linsk, a New York attorney whose firm is taking legal action against Boeing after an Alaska Airlines plane lost a door plug midair in January, said he was surprised when he saw the slide outside his oceanfront home in Belle Harbor Queens on Sunday.
“We are right on the beach and I saw it was sitting on the breakers,” Mr Bissell-Linsk told the New York Post. “I didn’t want to touch it but I got close enough to get a close look at it,” he said after he found the deflated yellow slide at his Atlantic Ocean facing home, six miles southeast of JFK Airport.
“Our case is all about safety issues at Boeing, and this slide is literally right in front of my house.”
Confirming the find, the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation told the New York Times that the airlines recovered “a large piece of debris” near Beach 131st Street in Belle Harbort.
