Your comment takes a lot away from all the people involved in such areas.[/quote]

i am not passing judgement on what happened, but your statement is a little foolish i think...

how many mountains do you know of that flew into planes and killed the people on board...?

so, for whatever reason it might be, it was the pilots that flew into the ground/mountain/bad weather or whatever you want to call it....if they were all aces as you say they would still be alive...

i am not detracting from people who are good pilots, but it seems our community finds it hard to accept it when we make mistakes, errors in judgement, or just fcuk up which may ultimately lead to a crash.

we all make mistakes, just hopefully we live to learn from them, always going to be the case...[/quote].......I dont know who u are but realy have some respect that plane had one off my best friends onboard and 1 of the best pilots I know.
