After initially reporting no survivors, one passenger survived and literally walked away from the crash.
UNCC economics professor Matthew Metzgar interviewed on camera for this QC News piece on today’s JetZero announcement:
PBS newshour (watch while it still exists) reported that the survivor was sitting next to an exit.
They speculated that the exit door popped open on impact and he was able to jump out before the conflagration.
Yep, extremely lucky fellow.
Also first ever crash of a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, though not the first time that type of aircraft has experienced issues.
