Game designer Sean Bates found an iPhone in a bush Sunday that had fallen from Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 when it lost a part of its fuselage shortly after takeoff.
Bates posted pictures of his discovery that afternoon, one of which included the screen showing a still-open email with a baggage receipt.
The phone fell out of the plane when, just a few minutes after takeoff, the Boeing 737 Max 9 explosively decompressed, sending a fuselage plug flying off of the plane and forcing it to turn around and make an emergency landing at Portland International Airport, where it had originally taken off.
The National Transportation Safety Board confirmed during a Sunday briefing that two phones were recovered after falling from the Boeing 737 Max 9 — one was found on the side of the road and another in a yard.
On Saturday, the FAA grounded 171 Boeing 737 Max 9 planes pending investigation to see if this was indicative of a broader issue.
The same day of the incident, The Seattle Times reported that Boeing had requested a safety exemption for an unrelated defect that could cause catastrophic engine damage.
