NTSB reveals why a Ryanair window may have smashed open mid-flight

Last month, a Ryanair window smashed open mid-flight, causing a passenger's head to be pulled through the opening before other passengers yanked him back in. Kris Van Cleave has new details about why this happened.

Bird remains were found inside the engine, suggesting that the plane might have struck birds during takeoff.

The National Transportation Safety Board said it had found a bird’s remains and feathers on a broken engine.
