Flying out of Portland in January, a door plug on Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 departed the aircraft, causing a rapid depressurization. In her exclusive first interview following the event with CBS News’s Kris Van Cleave, Superior Airmanship Award Winner, Emily Wiprud shares her experience. Events like Alaska 1282 are reminders of the ways pilots must always be ready to respond to emergencies in the skies and it demonstrates the value of having two highly qualified, fully trained, and well-rested pilots on the flight deck at all times.   In this episode of Air Line Pilot, we’re sharing that exclusive interview with First Officer Wiprud and ALPA President, Capt. Jason Ambrosi.
