Howie, I don't think there were any passengers on this jet. I ran an alert last week when this jet took off from our airport and lost an entire engine cowling on take-off. It fell off in several pieces for the entire length of the runway and some of it hasn't been found yet. They made a quick return to PBIA with a fanfare of fire trucks standing by. They landed safely but the wing and fuselage were dented in a couple of spots. The engine has been removed and mechanics have been flown in to repair the thing. It seems like a major project. All's well that ends well I guess.
