      Why do they make planes go at a deadly nosedive all the way down? Can’t they just do a safer -2000 VS angle? They could still regain speed by doing -2000 VS and it wouldn’t be so deadly.

    Cause: After 2 months of flying non stop, both pilots were terribly exhausted. On their stop to beirut they had a chance to take a break but instead they eat a meal at the airport. Due to the meal they couldnt sleep till the flight began and they were commenting odd stuff and as they took off well they flew like a bird that lost its feathers.

So car accidents happening more often is a matter of course. Only if we had the same amount of travelers, could we compare it confidently. Then both means of transport would be almost exactly the same concerning probability of death per time unit.

      Then the airline will need to admit to themselves that they need to do IQ Tests on potential candidates first. Most of my special need students think they can become commercial airline pilots with little effort…

      @@prophetgoldy well, you can learn the procedures by heart without understanding them, then you are a pilot but still don’t really understand what’s going on. So it’s possible to be that way when you are allowed to take charge of a ✈️.

      Ethiopian airlines is one of the best on earth, certainly the best in Africa. Ranks above Norway, China, Arab countries except Qatar and UAE, better than united.
      These are rare incidents, the pilots as you might have heard, had 10000+ hours experience
