FH1100, for the record, I was solely responding to OAP's query about a Westland falling off the roof. I was not aware PanAm operated 222s, which I now know was in the early 80's before the Westlands were introduced.
However, I do appreciate your firsthand account of what by all means must have been a tragic and grim sight to witness. One that you'll never forget, I'm sure. Just like the arrogance of "the boss." You're absolutely right about pax not being left to do their own thing. Sorry you had to see and experience something like that, hoping the rest of us never do...
