I LIVE IN TORONTO WAS BOARDING A PLANE IN VEGAS WHEN I SAW CRASH ON NEWS JUST BEFORE BOARDING THAT IS CALLED BAD TIMING.

WHEN ROVE PAST CRASH SIGHT ABOUT 7 HOURS LATER THEY WERE STILL PUTTING OUT FIRE.

IT LOOKED LIKE HUST A BIG HOLE IN GROUND AND NO REPORTS HAD BEEN MADE ABOUT IF PEOPLE HADDEN GOTTEN OUT OK .

I remember that now..but even before that I think the record has been good for a while.

Flying is BY FAR and away the safest way to go...you have a WAY better chance getting hit by a car and killed on your way to 7-11 to get a 150oz slurpee then in a plane


some do not realize that

I understand that, and I agree with it. But I still hate to fly for 2 reasons: 1. There is no such thing as a fender-bender--it's almost always the jackpot. 2. They don't let me drive. In fact, they look at me funny when I ask.

This was less of a crash and more of a 'bad landing.' I think when the talk plane crashes, they mean planes falling from the sky and nosediving.

Chicago Midway had a 'crash' similar to the one you cite just a month ago. Plane skidded off the runway there, too, and into traffic. More of an accident than a crash.
