DC-10s falling apart as fast as I predicted

Article in today's Newark Star Ledger:

Engine debris puts DC-10s under scrutiny
Continental Airlines said yesterday that it was stepping up inspections of its McDonnell Douglas DC- 10s after engine parts broke loose during the takeoff of a Newark- bound flight last week.

And many of you made fun of me when I complained the last time I flew a DC10 (and I've kept my promise for that to be my last DC-10 flight):

I said then that they were dangerous aircraft, and I was correct then and now.
