I looked up Kalitta Air and find they're a Part 121 cargo carrier flying
B-747s. It's hard to imagine they'd not notice the loss of cabin pressure and don their masks and begin descent all the while declaring an emergency and contacting ATC. And what was that incessant "whoop whoop" horn blaring in the background? I never flew a 747 and I don't recall the warning given to loss of cabin pressure in a 727 (been 34 years since I flew one). Still, I was impressed by the pilot's lucidity, even through his slurred speech. He knew he had a problem but had no idea what it was. It's a very good thing they were able to complete a safe descent!

I'd sat "Please be quiet SOF". |
