Looks like a dead body was found in wheel well compartment on a UAL202 from ORD-PHOG yesterday.
Now, I'm just going to go out on a limb and say this stowaway was from the previous flight which was coming from San Paulo, Brazil (Although, I hear Chicagostan is getting pretty bad nowadays). Anyways, if from Brazil, what a damning indictment on both the flight crew and ground crew in ORD for not catching this in Chicago. If an actual walk-around was performed, there is no way a dead body would be left unnoticed in the wheel well. Cold ears in Chicago are not a valid reason for skipping a walk-around, haha. Can anyone confirm yet if the stowaway was from Chicago or Brazil?

I googled this story this AM and last update to this story was 4 days ago, providing almost no specific details. Hard to believe facts about this event are not available/newsworthy as of yet. Guess this story only had a 24 hours news cycle shelf life, or the story is being buried.

Weird that a message came out just now in CCS reminding folks of the importance of following safety protocols in regards to access control, i.e. - badge display in secure areas, need to query unbadged individuals, etc. I'm sure it is just a coincidence.

For all of you CSI qualified pilots making comments about whodunit. Did any of you crime fighters think to pull out your fluorescent lights and check for semen stains on the decedent and the surrounding area? My guess is is that Pipeman was involved. Just sayin.
