On August 16, 1965 United Air Lines Flight 389 plunged into Lake Michigan killing 30 on board while descending for landing at O’Hare. On November 8, 1965, American Airlines Flight 383, crashed during its approach to Greater Cincinnati airport, killing 62 of 66 passengers and crew on board. Three days later, United Air Lines Flight 227 crashed on landing at Salt Lake City International Airport, killing 43 of 91 aboard. And on February 4, 1966, an All Nippon Airways 727 crashed into the sea on approach to Haneda Airport at Tokyo killing 133.
How times change. Compare and contrast the reaction to the two fatal crashes of 737MAX. Clearly regulators were must more blase about fatalities back then and were quite happy to see the type carry on in service whilst the causes and new procedures were resolved. Today, two fatal accidents and the 737MAX is out of service for what looks likely to be 6 months plus. I prefer today's attitudes to those of 50 years ago!
