Colgan 3407 Down in Buffalo

[Cardinal]

My god. Listening to a lady's last words a few hours after they're uttered. My thoughts are with all Colganites.

Outside of Miles O'Brien, the news media always screw up the details on aviation related news.

That said...what the hell does it matter right now?* The details will be corrected eventually. Members of our "extended family", so to speak, just lost their lives tonight not two and a half hours ago...would it be so hard for the membership of FI to stop the cynical bashing for a few minutes and focus our thoughts on them and their loved ones?



* - Not directed at you, per se, WSurf. Just in general.

Well said. A bunch of families just had their lives changed forever.

Just heard about it in CA on Kcal 9, they were saying 44 pax, 4 crew and 1 on ground killed. So sad god be with their families.
