86000 views for what could have prevented for a few thousand bucks on an ILS and relocation of power lines...a lesson that could be used all over to improve safety.

Over 3 million views for a fluke occurance that's basicallly unpreventable.

Meanwhile, bombs threats on Turkish, passengers storming the cockpit on United.....on and on.

But the problem is suicidal pilots. It's amazing.
Unusual events with interesting human factors will always trend higher on forums, the media, and in the general public.

Suicide, a vanishing airliner, a CAVU prang at a major airport, etc will always have more interest than say a night, bad weather cras....sorry, heavy landing....without a fatality any day. Rather more routine.
