'150 dead' in Russian jet crash



MOSCOW, Russia (CNN) -- An Airbus A-310 passenger jet with 200 people on board left the runway early Sunday while landing at Irkutsk Airport in eastern Siberia, crashed into a concrete barrier and burst into flames, killing 150 people, according to the Russian news agency Interfax.

The front of the plane was crushed, and more than 40 people were hospitalized with burns, the agency said, quoting emergency officials.
The jet, flying from Moscow, hit a building before catching fire, and the blaze was under control, the agency said.
Emergency crews were attempting to retrieve bodies and rescue anyone left on board.

No offense but that does not quite make sense for the outcome.

The noun Godspeed has one meaning:
Meaning #1: a successful journey

Godspeed may refer to:
  • a term basically meaning "good luck
God·speed (gŏd'spēd')
n.
Success or good fortune

God speed, Good speed; prosperity. See Godspeed.

What would posses you to say that? People lose their lives in a tragedy and you want to nit pick gramer. Saying "No offence," doesn't make that nonoffensive. Have you no descency? Go inflate your ego somewhere else.

I Have a very high sense of morality and decency. I thought it appropriate to bring up that saying basically "Good luck" and or "Have a succesfull trip" after many people lost their lives including the crew is prob. not what was meant to be said. No ego here. Just a transfer of knowledge.

PS learn how to spell
