Mays had been aboard US Airways Flight 1241 from Philadelphia to Tampa that blew out its front tires as it landed at Tampa International Airport on June 27, the day before his death. None of the 138 passengers and five crew members were reported to be seriously injured immediately following the incident, but several passengers reported having bumps and bruises from falling objects.[2] Mays told a local Tampa television station that some of the objects "hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."[14] It is unclear whether Mays' death was related to the incident.

Am I the only one who didn't hear about this aircraft incident? I guess the news has been swarmed with Farrah Fawcett/Michael Jackson/N. Korea/Iran lately, but usually news reports stuff like this airplane incident even if there weren't any fatalities
