"Fatal maintenance flaw"
 
Flying DEN-AUS 1082 and we have had two different planes with, in the word of our captain' a "fatal maintenance flaw" so now I am about to board my third EMB 170. Should we be concerned about Frontier's maintenance?

Did he happen to mention what the flaw was. There were a couple that had inadvertant mask drops but thats as far as I know.

Third aircraft departed DEN, landing AUS about three hours late. Each passenger given $100 voucher. Pilot apparently apologized for using the word "fatal" in describing the problem.
