Lots of light aircraft fall from the sky when the engine stops. Should they all avoid flying over built up areas all of the time
The big fellas drop stuff on the suburbs as well up to and including engine pods, most damaging was a 747 shedding two pods then the airframe crashing into a block of apartments resulting in a large death toll, should ALL aircraft be banned from over flying the suburbs on that basis? More to worry about is a motor vehicle parking in your bedroom, happens on a regular basis.
It is a sad industry if command decisions are to be made on the basis of what keyboard warriors might opine after the event
Particularly when that command decision produces an outcome of no consequence, I can't believe the Avalon discussion going on here, I'd expect better from experienced aviators - sorry.
