Folks, I don't care what Fox News is reporting. Here's what the Japanese media is reporting.

Asahi TV said the two crew on the plane had been killed in the crash but Kyodo news agency said the pilot and copilot were pulled from the plane unconscious and in critical condition.

Lets hope they did indeed got out.

Japanese news reporting they have the names but withholding them for now. All they will say is crew were males, Americans, Captain in his 50s and FO is in his 40s.

What is the runway alignment there? IE how much of a crosswind was that?

Folks, there is a difference between analyzing a crash, or asking questions about factors that may contribute to a crash, and badmouthing those who have perished.

While it may not be the time to be speculating or asking the questions, that time will come. If the crew made a mistake, they made a mistake. If there was some other factor, so be it. Find out what happened and why and figure out a way keep it from happening in the future. What ever the outcome it in no way diminishes the memory of the crew or mean they were any less professional or skilled - they had a bad day and sadly they did not walk away from it. It can happen to any one of us on any given day.

Best wishes to the family, friends and all at FedEx.
