Cape Air Plane Door Opens Mid-Flight, Crew Lands Safely

0:00It's April 7th. Welcome in. This is Canada News today, where local news meets AI. A Cape Air flight out of Nantucket had a scary moment when part of the main cabin door popped open right after takeoff on Monday. The crew stayed cool, turned the plane around, and landed back in Nantucket Memorial Airport without any issues. No one got hurt, and the aircraft handled it all smoothly. Passenger footage circulating online captured the upper door section cracked open mid-flight, showing sky and ocean through the gap, while folks sat nearby. The small plane kept flying steady until they got back on the ground. Nantucket draws crowds as a summer hotspot, about 30 miles off Massachusetts to South Coast, mostly reached by plane or ferry. This glitch shook up travelers, but highlighted how crews handle emergencies. The airline pulled the plane from service right away for a full check, and is sticking to all safety protocols. They'll act on whatever the inspection turns up. Lucky no one was hurt, and it shows these quick calls keep things safe up there. Stay tuned for more on the probe.
