From Yahoo....
"David Learmount, an aviation safety expert with British-based Flight International magazine, said the crash appears similar to others in which planes have overshot runways before hitting obstacles or uneven ground "
Such genius!
I know Learmount and he is actually very bright.
Do not mistake a stupid quote choice by a lay "journalist" member of the mass hysteria (nee media) for the actual thought or opinion of David Learmount.
Indeed, perhaps I mistake your comment. Maybe it was not directed at Learmount, but at the reporter who quoted him?
