On August 13, 2026, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released a preliminary report concerning an uncontained engine failure on a Ryanair Boeing 737-800 that occurred on July 10, 2026. The incident involved a fan-blade release which resulted in significant damage.
The released fan blade shattered a cabin window, leading to rapid decompression of the aircraft cabin. This sudden depressurization caused injuries to some of the passengers on board.
The NTSB continues its investigation into the event and has updated the official investigation page accordingly. More detailed findings will be published as the investigation progresses.
