    As a Commercial Pilot, it is imperative to remain on the controls of your aircraft as long as it is still flyable, whilst doing everything you can to recognise and if possible isolate the problem and if at all possible ensure the aircraft doesn't crash into a populated area.

    When you play the wrong UNO card... I know of at least 2 incidences where military pilots stayed in the cockpit to steer away from build-up areas, both pilots died to protect the people below.
    One incident was in the UK, the other in South Africa.
    The South African pilot wanted to eject, but his aircraft, an Impala, was facing a school, so he guided his aircraft away.
    In the Vikbo Incident, there were no buildings around, just forest... how unlucky.

      Om de siffror jag sett stämmer snittade man typ 7 döda per år under sjuttiotalet, vilket var en rejäl minskning mot de två föregående decennierna. Som jämförelse dig det, om siffrorna jag sett på Wikipedia stämmer, 32 flygare under Falklandskriget vilket är ett krig med en hel del flygförluster. Det är rätt extremt, milt sagt...

    The engine stalled for a non-fuel issue just as the fuel gauge failed? Maybe there should have been something that pushes the stick forward after the pilot ejects.

    This is an example of inconceivable bad luck.
    There was a similar, albeit not a flying tragedy, here in Melbourne a couple of years ago where IIRC, three police cars had pulled over a Porsche on a freeway and a truck driven by a either drugged up or mentally affected driver just plowed into the police. Think 3 or 4 were killed. I mean what are the chances of that happening? Sometimes these un fathomable events just happen. There’s simply no logical explanation. In the Swedish crash, had the jet just flown a few hundred metres, been a little higher or been just 5 or 10 degrees of that course it would of missed the building. No words.
