shareYeah, horrific.
Somebody made a terrible mistake.
This will be a huge investigation.
Yes, very tragic. It was a series of failures. Not just one person is at fault.
shareI agree, a few mistakes had to have been made. This disaster might lead to better safety standards between military and civilian routes.
Thank goodness it didn’t occur over a neighborhood.
I've flown in and out of Regan a few times - never realized it is that congested. I was reading about 2 other potential problems happening just this week prior to the crash.
This Philly crash now too.
They had better sort this all out and fast.
Weird how both of these incidents come right on the heels of a new Transportation Secretary being sworn in. He's definitely got a full plate from day one.
shareTo quote Ian Fleming, ‘once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action.’
Let’s wait to draw conclusions until full investigations are completed.
It was just reported that the same Mexican company had a similar crash in 2023 where 5 people were killed.
shareMexico needs to get their shit together on a lot of things. A great agricultural country, a prime tourism locale, many lovely people… but seemingly low safety standards and rampant violent criminality.
NOT a terrific neighbor.
