Landing and take off remain the most dangerous times in flying.

Actually,.... Take off is probably (no evidence here) more scary in the case of engine failures

The airliner had been leased by state airline Cubana de Aviación from the Mexican company Damojh, Cuba's Director of Air Transport said.

State TV said it was an internal flight from the Cuban capital to Holguin, in the east of the island.

Images showed a thick column of smoke near the crash site. Fire crews and ambulances are at the scene.

Radio Havana Cuba said on Twitter that the plane came down on the "highway" between Boyeros and Havana, near the airport.

Prensa Latina said Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel, who was sworn in last month, has rushed to the scene.

I no go talk

No..

Lol

Reminds me of when I made the same trip, Holguin to Havana. Them planes are quite old, back then the airport was just a shack and tarmac.

The flight back to Holguin (although 45mins) was horrendous, the weather was bad.. Thunderstorm and I had mad panic attacks because it felt like the plane was going to crash.
My heart really goes out to them. But about time they upgraded their air safety.

must be a case of wrong aviation fuel. When the wrong fuel is used it flies up and crashes back down within minutes. too sad.

I hope Buhari is in that plane

what is the essence of parachute in a situation like this the pillot should have disembark alot of people as he can with parachutes.... oh I forgot its only exist In Bollywood and Hollywood

Hope there were no fatalities.

Noo not at all

Bros, do you know energy possessed by an airplane already in flight is massive, When it crashes, it has to lose all that energy upon impact.

Assuming the fuel wasn't going to explode, the occupants are still going to have to loose the energy possessed by their inherent speed and mass. There's only little the human body can tolerate before fatal injuries occur.

Yet still, the fuselage is definitely going to fail and flying parts will kill them... If they are luck to survive that,

The fuel will explode to seal the death fate of the passengers.

it's literally impossible for any to survive a plane crash. Every lucky survivor of a plane crash is a miracle

go and watch miracle landing on the Hudson river on YouTube. Though not common, there r have bin a handful of plane crash where over 90% of those on board survived, and more so there has bin the ones where there were lone survivors. a little girl once survived a fall of over 30000 feet when she was thrown out of the plane mid-flight into d Amazon forest.

Plane, one of the fastest way to heaven

Miracle in the Hudson was a properly controlled crash land after the plane lost two engines post V2 so the pilot was able to control the angle of attack decently enough on approach of the chosen crash land sight which happened to be the Hudson river ... This crash is a very different in all ramifications because from all immediate evidence the aircraft lost either complete power or hydraulics or critical pre flight check list fail meaning the pilot lost recoverable control of the aircraft somewhere at V2 which means the aircraft literally fell of the sky with all that energy it had built up at take off .it's a miracle 3 people even survived the impact.

My heart goes out to them. After reading this, Camila Cabello's 'Havana' is just playing non stop in my head

the only good and reasonable comment I have read on Nairaland today. Thank u very much. That's y I always repent very well before boarding a plane. Planes are not like cars that can crash and d people come out easily, u need to feel the speed when this tin takes off and land. Lord please have mercy and protect me as I travel back to nigeria soon because I will be boarding 3 good times, father have mercy, if person wan die, make e die peacefully for house at old age no be d one e go roast like suya...baba forgive us our sins na beg we de so..

still, people do survive plane crash and in some very rare cases, no fatalities occurred. And in the case of the Hudson, the plane didn't fall from the sky, rather it glided to a very unceremonious landing. most modern planes r fitted with that function to glide a safe distance in case of total engine failure so that planes don't just fall from the sky like that.

No plane is fitted with any glide function any plane that that has climbed to a sufficient height to attain a good glide ratio will glide , the average glide ratio for a standard commercial liner is about 300 ft decent to 1 km glide and flight 1549(Hudson miracle) had attained a climb of over 3000 ft before commencing a controlled decent into the Hudson river ... ..Yes there a many situation where aircraft can fall out of the sky like a rock

1:When an aircraft has not attained cruise climb and and anything happens to the Power or hydraulics at that time .

2 : during a take off stall .

3: during and extreme manuvuer and the aircraft becomes irrecoverable from the manuveur

4 : Any significant damage to either the the wings , tail rudder or elevators.

I could go on and on about many other situation that could make a plane fall out of the sky like a rock

And why would a miracle spare just a person or two? Would it mean the rest don't serve God enough or what?

...parachutes have heights u jump from...if a car is travelling at 160 then try jumping out with a big balloon, u will die so well...a plane take off speed that exceeds 240km/h and its close to the ground.... Parachute won't do a thing for u...in fact its better u remain in d plane than do that(u re definitely dieing)

More than 100 people on board plane that crashed
From CNN’s Patrick Oppmann and Marilia Brocchetto
Cuban state media reports that there were 104 people on board a plane that crashed shortly after takeoff at Havana's airport.

Boeing 737 plane was heading to the Cuban city of Holguin.

It is still unknown if there were fatalities.

My interest is in the last sentence. Even in a bus crash involving 100 ppl, you reasonably expect fatalities much more an air crash. May God help them.
