WOW..many years ago when airlines were flying the dc 10, there were incidents of cargo doors opening and things falling out..once there wwas a report of a coffin being dropped into a persons yard..there also used to be reports of big blocks of the "blue goo" from aircraft lavatories falling from the sky.but that hasnt happened in years either..

yes richard,it was..the planes owner is a houston area home builder/developer and he had invited about 17 or 18 friends to join him on the trip to boston to support the astros...pictures of the inside of the reconfigured jet showed couches,swivel seats a bar and a desk seating area for business trips..

the pictures of the crash site were awful! it is remarkabale all of the people on board got out,but reports were the flames and total destruction was not immediate,so they were able to escape before that..to be sure the ntsb will investigate thoroughly to find out what cause the incident..the aircraft was in a take off roll but did not get off the ground..

it is unfortunate that getting a shot that has proven to be effective against a lethal virus,has become such a political football..the southwest arilines pilots union has MANY issues on the table regarding their contract and their employment..it is NOT just the vaccine mandate...

the recording of the atc and the pilot was played on the national news last night ..it was terrrible to hear the frantic voice of the atc person and the almost "fragile" little voice of that pilot..he seemed to be disoriented and not understand..this was so sad..

it has long been the case(even before covid)that passengers expect an airline,which IS a business,to be some "god like" entity that will take are of all of their travel problems..granted, these massive cancellations,which wn said was due to weather and no atc,and the faa said not so,ARE a very confusing and anger sparking event for a travelling public just now getting back into airplane seats..but a large portion of it has to do with NO CREWS to fly the airplanes,because of a lack of flight crews for many reasons,including unions saying they wont fly if covid shots are required, and lots of crews who took early outs months back..it is a bad situation all the way around, and one southwest have EVER encountered before..best of luck to them and their management..

flight crews generally are required to receive vaccinations for lots of things,and there have been no uprisings regarding those shots,including the regular yearly flu vaccination..these people would rather see the flying public,just now geting back into airplanes,either drive or fly on some other carrier than get a shot?southwest has always prided itself on being a better and cheaper choice than other airlines,but by doing this,they may well send the company into a bankruptcy court..no crew,flights cancelled,and many disgrutled passengers saying no more to southwest..!
