shymmex:

Have you seen the pictures of the plane in question?

Check the pictures, and come back with a reasonable reply.

No where to run to man in a country where the leaders are one eyed. But then,i will still prefer road,because the chances of escaping are more likely than an aircraft,especially if one can maintain the barest minimum speed.

Akainzo:

Yep I have, the tail section is in its perfect horizontal position. That is not the position it would be in if the plane had dived into the ground.

shymmex: This is the concorde crash again:

The plane crashed 2mins after take off, meaning the take off wasn't smooth because four of the engines were on fire - and the pilot was trying to crash land before bumping into the hotel..

The Dana plane flew all the way from Abuja, only to crash into a densely populated area.. Does that make sense to you?

UGOCHUKWU3: just saw on the television that the plane hit an electric pole while landing.God have mercy

cryptic:

Lol, anybody Wein go die go die. Let's just be careful and be prayerful. Nigeria is doomed.

bennyraz: My cousin entered dis dana air last month frm abuja to lagos and he complained bitterly. He said d lady dat sat next to him kept on pleading d blood of jesus all through and most passengers were praying all sort of prayers. He said he was fed up and he gave it up that he was going to die last month by plane crash. He said in mid air, d plane wud shake vigorously and attimes it wud look asceive it's going down and it will come up again.. He said it was always jerking.. Kai. RIP to the passengers on board amd God punish the airlines that risk our lives everyday.

Reference:

Man, it is important. There's one phone outstanding that isn't going. But I'm not assuming anything just yet. It can be embarassing you know.

All.

I would like you to ponder and ask yourself this - When last did a plane crash during the week in Nigeria?

The last time a plane crashed during the week was 1979. There have been 2 other crashes in Nigeria which involved small light planes - a helicopter and a Cesna plane. The Cesna took off on a training flight in Kaduna and crashed. Apart from these, no other planes have crashed during the week. Atleast NO commercial airline has crashed during the week in Nigeria.

I have said these over and over again and people seem to think I am talking rubbish. I am calling for an investigation into WHY it is only weekends!!

Could it be that there are services that are not available to Airplanes during the weekend that are available during the week?

Concerning this crash, I am almost sure it was a hydraulic failure. At that height, distance from runway, I am sure the tyres were all ready out, it had lined up for approach and it would have already gone into the 2 level flaps!
At that stage, the only thing that would typically cause this kind of crash without any maneuvers from the pilot would have been hydraulic failure! Engine failures would typically not result in this type of crash!

I am not a pilot and probably talking from my experience with flying more than 4 times a week at times.

Its sad but this is a call to investigate this analysis I am making.

Why always on WEEKENDS? Why

Today's weather was fine. Visibility would have been fine. traffic would have been ok being a sunday. Clearance to land would have been given. At that stage of the flight, if the engines were typically to fail, it would have failed on take off!

I only wonder about what could have happened. I am so so sad!

I fly a lot and I know I am not better or more favoured than anyone that was on that flight. It just so happened I was not flying today! It could have been ANYONE!

I pray this will make us sit up and be more serious!

Else, once again, we are just statistics in Nigeria! Just statistics!

Akainzo:
My guy, stop this altogether. If the plane crashes 2 minutes after take off, where, how and in which time would the pilot have to start looking for where to crash land? Please go to National Geographic to watch the documentary and then you'd know better.

Let's wait for the investigations to be concluded before making all this far fetched insinuations. It dishonors the dead actually.
