Passengers vomited into oxygen masks, debris flew through the cabin and part of the ceiling and floor collapsed when a hole 'the size of a mini-van' torn in the belly of a Qantas Boeing 747 forced an emergency landing in Manila today.


The packed aircraft, which was carrying 346 passengers and 19 crew from London to Melbourne, was said to have plunged a terrifying 20,000 feet after what the pilot described as an "explosive decompression" shortly after leaving Hong Kong bound for Melbourne.

Experts initially said the hole could have been caused by an explosion in the baggage compartment.

The explosion could have been caused by an illegal shipment of Chinese firecrackers on board.
