i would never fly during rain or thunder storms, only if its day or night for this reason… How sad about this trajedy, R.I.P.
Did the pilots “breach” the minima?
@lavakava Not for nothing; however, a localizer is NOT required to land. If weather does not permit you to land properly without one, like with limited visibilty, the aircraft should be rerouted to the next airport large enough to handle said aircraft with proper equipment and visibility.
my dad would’ve come to this wreckage but he couldnt
That’s one amazing Governor, getting in at the sharp end like that…
well look at the dark side knowing how to say good bye in korean is not worth like 150 lives.
another one if i was the pilot i would not descent evenif i descent i will descent until the mountain was below e and wait to see the runway
well look at the bright side i know how to say good bye in korea
that is really sad all because the rain
its Hagåtña
is it Agana or Agania?
and the ‘safe’ pilot was a stupid ass. if i were a pilot, if i don’t see the runway and even if i’m 1 percent unsure, i wouldn’t descend.
why would a fucking airport even operate without a locailizer? bullshit guam shit. its the irresponsibility of some motherfuckers that kill the innocent passengers. i hope guam airport officials are imprisoned for life…
well notice how they always fall at the randomest moments?
Dunno. I’m not Korean and this makes me cry. This is a very sad story. Maybe if I were Korean I wouldn’t cry for Japanese, though.
is it just me or does the airline of ur heritage seem more sad?
i mean im korean and watching tis and seeing the pics of the accual aircraft make me cry.
if u were japanesse would it be the same?
because there was such a “lurch” and Bang that they came down because they were forced to. If you watch HOOK you see Peter Pan’s son bounces a baseball on the cabinet where the masks are and they come down because he hits it too hard. Kind of like that!
??………….they’re supposed to? i guess…
Why did the oxygen masks fall down?
I dont even remember about that comment, so dunno.
lol r u actly serious?
they nee to do the miss apouch at the 500 voice waring.
“Things were getting pretty serious at that point… The plane was breaking apart.”
YEAH THATS PRETTY FUCKING SERIOUS!!!
“Go around.” Good call. A bit late, illegally using an obsolete approach chart, but a good call.
i love the way the guy said “lets do it!”
