That would be most unfortunate to be the one person on the ground killed by it.

The daughter of Capt. Sullenberger actually goes to my school. You do know that that plane crash was not the pilot's fault, right? I doubt anything is going on with "pilots these days." It was the scourge birds.

Only a very very small percentage of commercial aviation accidents are due to pilot error. It's almost always caused by mechanical malfunction, usually due to crappy maintenance.

families and friends of the 3 pilots, 1 non-rever of Colgan, and 45 passengers all have my prayers.

most of the planes that do crash, are not corporate airliners, nor do they crash in highly populated areas, and they crash safely. I.E. safe landings not making it on the landing strip, or single engine planes, private jets, etc...

Yeah this was actually pretty fucking close to me (I live in buffalo ny). My dad is flying out in about 3 hours too. Scary o.o

It's the opposite of a "rever", obviously.

Planes always crash.
Cars always crash.
No surprises.
Condolences to the passengers and crew.

Unfortunate, but planes are still by far the safest form of travel.
|
Worst timing for the plane crash. Now all that joy about "amazing pilots" just disappears. Prayers to the families.
