An airliner has made an emergency landing in the United States after a gaping hole in the roof caused a sudden drop in cabin pressure.<\/p>\n

Southwest Airlines flight 182 from Phoenix to Sacramento put down safely at a military air base in Arizona.<\/p>\n

Passengers heard a bang as the roof panel blew open in the cabin. “You can see completely outside,” one woman told the Associated Press news agency.<\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear what caused the fuselage to rupture.<\/p>\n

An FBI spokesman said terrorism was not suspected and “it appears to be a mechanical issue”.<\/p>\n

‘Dropped pretty quick’<\/span><\/p>\n

Passenger Brenda Reese said the plane had just left Phoenix when she heard a “gunshot-like sound”.<\/p>\n

“It’s at the top of the plane, right up above where you store your luggage,” she told AP by telephone from the plane. <\/p>\n

“The panel’s not completely off. It’s like ripped down… When you look up through the panel, you can see the sky.”<\/p>\n

She said the plane “dropped pretty quick”.<\/p>\n

Another woman on board said: “They had just taken drink orders when I heard a huge sound and oxygen masks came down.<\/p>\n

“There was a hole in the fuselage about three feet long. You could see the insulation and the wiring. You could see a tear the length of one of the ceiling panels,” the woman told a local television station.<\/p>\n

Aviation officials said the pilot made a rapid, controlled descent. <\/p>\n

The National Transportation Safety Board said an “in-flight fuselage rupture” led to the sudden descent and drop in cabin pressure.<\/p>\n

“We do not know the cause of the decompression,” Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said.<\/p>\n

Southwest Airlines said no injuries were reported among the 118 passengers on board. One flight attendant was slightly injured, the statement said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
