I am thinking she caused a devastating shift on the CG.

but i dunno

4000 foot decent per minute over like 8 minutes

unfortunately it was probably a slow nightmare rather than a break apart
Must be terrorism.


German engineering just doesn't fail like that...

It's safer than driving. They just make far bigger news when they crash.

4000 ft per minute is virtually a nose dive.

For 8 minutes.


JFC, I hope they had pressurization failure and everyone was asleep because that would be terrifying.

It was an Airbus so British/French engineering.

I don't fly much but I always wondered why they don't have parachutes.

GloryDayz 03-24-2015 09:27 PM

I suppose that's like asking why we don't all drive tanks.

475 people died in airplane crashes all year in 2012, in the entire world. Statistically, you can fly in an airplane every day for 123,000 years before you crash and burn. (Source)

If only cars had that kind of safety record.
