Malaysia Airlines 772ER lost its engine parts after takeoff in Stockholm today enroute to Kuala Lumpur. The plane dumped fuel over the Baltic Sea and returned safely to ARN. Freaky!

I can't believe that picture! Even without the incident, it's an extremely high quality shot. Seeing the little pieces is really something.
