Hole found in plane that took off from Miami

DALLAS – Investigators are looking into what caused a hole to rip open in the fuselage of an airline jet as it cruised at 31,000 feet, causing a loss of cabin air pressure and forcing the pilot to make an emergency landing.
The 1-foot-by-2-foot hole opened in the roof shortly after American Airlines Flight 1640 took off from Miami bound for Boston on Tuesday night….
What were we saying, just the other day those were brand new aircraft?

Not desirable, but this plane was 20 years old.
