regarding the carribean md80 crash...wasn't there some thought that the plane was overloaded? Also improper use of anit ice?

anyway...a crash is a crash...and if you stall a plane, regardless of manufacturer and you cannot recover, not only did you screw up by letting the stall happen, but not being able to recover is really not earning your pay.

I would like to think of Air France as a first class line...and the carribean thing...not so first class.

the Stall is what makes the plane different than just an air going sort of automobile. how did we get to the point where a stall isn't right up there with concerns of safe flying?
