Surely you have seen the story of the plane these days, what’s new is that a phone from that accident has been recovered in perfect condition<\/strong>. The incident gives a new meaning to the term AirDrop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The phone was found by a citizen of Portland, Oregon. According to Sean Bates, who wrote on Twitter: “Still in airplane mode with half battery and open for a baggage claim for #AlaskaAirlines ASA1282”. Surprisingly, there wasn’t a scratch on the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I called it in, Zoe at @NTSB<\/a> said it was the SECOND phone to be found. No door yet? pic.twitter.com\/CObMikpuFd<\/a><\/p>— Seanathan Bates (@SeanSafyre) January 7, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote>
