Alaska Airlines 737 Emergency Landing "Catastrophic Electrical Failure"

An Alaska Airlines 737-400 originating from Ontario, California made an emergency landing at San Jose, California after a "catastrophic electrical failure" resulted in a rapid loss of cabin pressure.

The transponder was rendered inoperative making things more difficult for air traffic control.

No injuries were reported but sphincters probably got quite the workout among all involved.
