WorldEngine debris shattered Ryanair window, partially pulling passenger out, NTSB says

The NTSB found signs of metal fatigue in a fan blade that fractured on a Ryanair flight, sending debris through the fuselage and shattering a cabin window. A 61-year-old passenger was partly pulled into the opening but was dragged back by other passengers. The agency has not determined the failure’s root cause; the engine had four suspected bird strikes in the prior year.
