You are right Earl. Mine isnt too good either but as usual when such things happen 80 percent of what the Turkish media has been broadcasting about this crash is irresponsible B.S.

They have been using the plight of others to make a big show.

The airing of the funeral and the interviews of family members of the first officer who was a retired general was particularly tasteless.

He was declared a martyr and buried with full military honours.

One should not talk badly about the dead, its tragic enough.

But to make such a show for someone who probably is sharing responsibility for the deaths of almost 60 people and great pain for hundreds more is not right.

There must be a fundamental change in Turkish aviation culture.
