I recently wrote about a Qatar Airways flight attendant fired for stealing a business class passenger’s phone out of the lavatory. Now another flight attendant appears to have stolen a passenger’s iPhone. And when the airline turned up the heat, the phone wound up in a river.
A kid had their shirt pulled out the missing piece of fuselage, while his mother held onto him. And two cell phones flew out of the plane.
One made worldwide news when it was recovered intact after dropping more than 16,000 feet out of the sky. It was found on the side of a road, in airplane mode, with details of the owner’s checked baggage up on the screen. It had been plugged in to charge, and was yanked off of the charger and out the side of the plane. There were “no scratches on it.”
A kid had their shirt pulled out the missing piece of fuselage, while his mother held onto him. There were lap infants on the plane being held by their parents, while flight attendants assisted with oxygen masks. Luckily there wasn’t anyone seated in the seat beside the inactivated exit door the came off of the plane.

It had apparently been plugged in to charge, and was yanked off of the charger and out the side of the aircraft.
