  1. It’s truly only a matter of time before something catastrophic happens regardless of it being Boeing or air bus the airline industry is an accident waiting to happen because they are understaffed and overworked

  2. I read The air pockets for turbulence are becoming increasingly & unpredictably unstable especially in areas near & over large bodies of water with drops of 400ft in seconds that's why 1 remain buckled up the ENTIRE flight & avoid overseas flights even Hawaii I'll do a Cruise for that

  3. Hello, May I share the most important news you will ever hear in your life? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

  4. The Southwest pilots need retrained on landing they always slamming the plane to the ground. What happened to a glided landing? Every Southwest flight I've been on boom scared to death until you realize your on the ground.

  5. Unfortunately the first officer on that flight will not be fired he will just be sent back to retraining. Whether he learns anything or not soon down the road that same first officer will be a captain in charge of an airplane. For me that’s the scary part!

  6. Note: 'All planes in the air still safe to fly'? This is where the faux PR messages, which have become standard responses, should be considered as felonies by default.

  7. Unfortunately, we’re going to see more anomalies happen as the weather gets worse & worse (heat energy trapped within our atmosphere). Please don’t bother responding if you’re going to say something like the Earth is flat or the climate isn’t changing.
