Descanse en Paz

[Nota del moderador:

La noticia es bastante antigua, de Enero de 2006, aun cuando algún blog o algún foro se haya hecho eco recientemente de nuevo de aquel lamentable suceso.

Las imágenes contenidas en algunos foros y blogs son crudas, duras e innecesariamente dolorosas, el que quiera acceder a la noticia sin imágenes "sensibles" le basta con saber que:

"El aparato, de Continental Airlines, se preparaba para despegar. Un mecánico que permanecía junto a un Boeing 737 en el aeropuerto de El Paso (Texas) falleció ayer al ser atraido con fuerza por uno de los motores del avión, de Continental Airlines, que realizaba tareas de manenimiento previas al despegue."]

¡Menuda falta de respeto que se publicaran esas fotos, por Dios!

¡OJO! Puede herir la sensibilidad de varias personas, recomiendo tengan cuidado al echar un vistazo en el link.

Por otro lado, la noticia ha sido posteada en enero de 2012. Aún así, para que puedan verlo, no he encontrado otro enlace que no contengan dichas fotos para suavizar el dramatismo y el estupor, pero copio y pego la noticia para que la lean directamente aquí:

"A mechanic standing near a Boeing 737 at El Paso International Airport in Texas was sucked into one of the engines and killed Monday, officials said.

Continental Airlines Flight 1515 was preparing to take off for Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston when "a maintenance-related engine run-up of the right-hand engine" was carried out, said Roland Herwig, a spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration's southwest region in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

"Someone on the ground was sucked into the engine," he said.

In a written statement, Continental Chairman and CEO Larry Kellner said the person killed was a mechanic who worked for one of the airline's suppliers.

"My fellow coworkers and I extend our heartfelt sympathies to the family and friends of the mechanic involved in this tragic event," Kellner said.

The 737-500 was carrying 114 passengers and five crew members at the time of the accident, he said.

"Continental is coordinating assistance for passengers who need help dealing with this tragedy," Kellner said. "Continental's Employee Assistance Program team is also flying to El Paso to meet with employees."

He said the incident occurred during a maintenance check in preparation for the plane's departure.

A spokeswoman for Boeing said Monday's incident is not the first such accident. "It doesn't happen very often," spokeswoman Liz Verdier said. "It has happened in the past."

Either way, she said, the responsibility lies with Continental: "The airlines are responsible for their safety procedures."

The National Transportation Safety Board has sent a team of investigators from its office in Denver, Colorado, Herwig said."

DESCANSE EN PAZ.

Saludos.
