Breaking news and current events worldwide.
The fact that this is generally referred to as being “ingested” sketches me out ever so slightly, just like the word “degloved.”
Oh my god, I've never heard of degloving before and looked it up out of curiosity. That's horrifying, it means exactly what it sounds like it does.
I’ve been degloved - It’s not that bad. Now ingested is pretty final.
I am an engineer who works on turbofan engines, and the term ingestion is what whe use for all foreign objects entering the engine. That includes ice and birds too. Still an absolute tragedy.
