Because they carry so much highly-inflammable aviation fuel...



Given the brevity of its flight, even if the pilot was dumping fuel there would still be a substantial amount left in the tank.

Nigerians are too emotional,if you wish them rest in peace does that mean they will rest in peace, and if you don't wish them to rest in peace does that mean they wouldn't rest in peace? I only pity there family because Nigeria government will never do anything to make their life better by then they will know the difference

”Rest in peace” is not a peculiarly Nigerian saying or invention...
Rather, it (or some form of it) is merely a RESPECTFUL (and APPROPRIATE) comment in these circumstances across the world.

My worry is that were there parachute in that plane? Believed that could have saved them from crashing with the plane

Unlikely. It’s not a combat aircraft and these servicemen were not paratroopers...

There might be some survivors , cos he was almost approaching the runway . But cos he was still all the takeoff fuel intact , that's why the impact was much as this .

remember the pilot was a Nigerian pilot and not chesley sullenberger who landed a big, full aeroplane on the river,when he knew the rate of descent wouldn't make it possible to get to the closest airport after both engines failed. I still remember his communication with ground, very calm, confident, when he requested coastguard to move to River Hudson with 155 Passengers. Just imagine such incident happened on Nigeria and plane flown by a Nigerian pilot

I remember that a Nigerian pilot managed to avoid heavy casualties while crashlanding in Ikeja which is densely populated. We have good pilots. Circumstances differ.

Money for the maintenance of the aircraft must have been eaten by a high ranked officer and other officials.

There's poverty in the land. Villagers were trying to rove the shoes of the dead officers before soldiers chased them away.

Rip to the departed.
I think this death could have been prevented if the maintenance department did their job. probably the aircraft wasn't checked properly before take.

Pray not to be in an Emergency situation like that

Sadly spectators are better players than Footballers on pitch themselves
majamajic:
Fuel was still intact

The pilot should have started dumping out fuel Immediately before returning back to the airport , from the result it shows he came back with all the takeoff fuel

Are you dumb or just stupid?? so because he wasn't able to Land on some waterbody makes him less professional to a Foreign pilot?? Idiots like you are so Blind to the fact that he was professional enough to crash land the Plane on a Sparsely populated area thus reducing ground casualty effect. Or ur dumb self thinks Abuja is the SS where you virtually find water bodies every nooks and crannies

If at all you plan the whole day to remain senseless all ur life atleast save urself some days and disappoint urself to be sensible undecided

Why always airforce crashing their jets and not Airpeace, Arik, Dana or Aero?

Could it be quack airforce officers that are in charge if these jets?
