No time for this Bull Sh*t. Fox news reporting the crew passed away. God bless the families of the crew.

Damnit, that sucks! My best friend is an MD-11 Capt at FedEx. He's fine, Thank God, just talked to him.
 
OMG that looked horrible, nice day and then just a ball a flames. I wish they would have been able to do a balked landing off the bounce. Winds were gusting up to 49kts.

Talking now about the history of accidents similar to this with MD-11 aircraft. I don't know much about it, but they are saying that the tail of these aircraft was modified which changes pitch control on landing. Is there any truth to that?

God Bless
 
You're both an idiot and a jerk.:uzi: Please, no more stupid questions from the peanut gallery.

You can call me whatever names you want, but it's hard to argue that FX has suffered a disproportionate number of approach/landing incidents. Yes, I feel horrible for the families, yes, I feel terrible about this happening at all, but there is a trend here, and it's an alarming one.

BTW, my best friend agrees with me on this. He must be an idiot and a jerk also.
