[TUI](https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/604f423be90e077fdf88493f/Boeing_737-8K5_G-TAWG_04-21.pdf). Prior to the incident flight the reservation system from which the load sheet was produced had been upgraded. A fault in the system caused female passengers checked in with title ‘Miss’ to be counted as children. The system allocated them a child’s standard weight of 35 kg as opposed to the correct female standard weight of 69 kg. Consequently, with 38 females checked in incorrectly and misidentified as children, the G-TAWG takeoff mass from the load sheet was 1,244 kg below the actual mass of the aircraft.

[Turso](https://blog.turso.tech/incident-2023-12-04-data-leak-and-loss-in-some-free-tier-databases-7cba5bc7). Incorrectly configured DB backup identifiers led to data leaks for free tier customers, and the subsequent fix resulted in possible data loss.
