Anotherone off the RWY, seems to be happening weekly nowadays.
To me these incidents are scary, they do represent our industries biggest killer. Mere luck keeps it limited to a small 2 liner on the web, and it is probably not worth more than that to the general public.
On this forum it should be causing concern, especially the multitude of occurences.
Again it is of interest to me what information has been given to the pilots and what alse might have caused them to choose a landing at this place and at this time.
After reading the report supplied by decurion on the AA Jamaika thread

I have changed the way I work every day, have made room for more margin on takeoff and landing.
Noone plans to have an accident, and yet still they happen. So the above comments in the line of "not newsworthy" or "nothing happened, calm down" show a great lack of risk awareness.
