The decompression alone from the hole in the fuselage must have been scary as shit. To go through that, and then everything else up until the landing, jfc. What a nightmare.
Some more news coming out about the pilot. Apparently she's a complete beast of a person - https://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/th...ass-1825341463. Heck to handle landing the plane safely with this kind of stress. It's pretty amazing.

God damn. Shit reads like a mid 90’s action movie.
Ultimately curious to see if they find out this was sabotage since it happened so close to an inspection. Either way, it could've went way, way, worse. So props to pilot lady.
How long till a movie is made about this like "Sully?" In this case though it'll be starring Sandra Bullock. It'll be like Sully and Speed, in the air, with the star of Speed.
This most recent emergency landing was definitely some fine aviation and piloting, but it's not quite as bold and brilliant as putting one down on a river and saving everyone in the 50 seconds before it sank.
Google's Self-Driving Waymo involved in a Crash in Arizona, Is Not Actually at Fault
We are currently investigating a minor injury collision involving two vehicles, one of which is a Waymo autonomous vehicle. This afternoon around noon a vehicle (Honda sedan) traveling eastbound on Chandler Blvd. had to swerve to avoid striking a vehicle traveling northbound on Los Feliz Dr. As the Honda swerved, the vehicle continued eastbound into the westbound lanes of Chandler Blvd. & struck the Waymo vehicle, which was traveling at a slow speed and in autonomous mode. There was an occupant in the Waymo vehicle sitting in the driver’s seat, who sustained minor injuries. Both the Waymo vehicle & the Honda were towed from the scene. This incident is still under investigation.
Sichuan Airlines co-pilot is sucked half way out of the windshield and survives. Pilot was able to land the plane safely despite the huge drop in pressure and oxygen. The co-pilot was wearing his seatbelt at the time.
