  1. The KLM pilot wanted it all his way. While there were several factors, had he not been so in a hurry and full of conceit, the crash would never have happened.

  2. Since 1998, I have chosen to drive wherever I go, that way, I'm the one responsible for my own destiny. Airlines do not give a $h!+ about the passengers, only how many they can cram on board and make a profit. Aircraft end up getting many, many takeoff/landing cycles and operating hours racked up, a recipe for disaster.
    I'll pass on flying, thank you. Flying itself does not bother me, it's the airlines and their attendant BS that does.

  3. . . two airliners collide .. **583** **persons** **dead** 😱😠..🙏🕯️🌹✝️🛐✝️ dying very violently and painfully …😔😳😵😭 **INEXCUSABLE** .. just my humble opinion.. with the current state of the world today.. nobody should be flying in **anything** .. anymore.. …insane greed🤑🤑🤑😠 stops them from improving on tech safety .. money more important than life..now more than ever.. 😔😵😠 .. …please don't fly. . regardless of employment. , tourism .. business.. or for **any** other reason…and *never* *with* **children/ minors** .(or **beloved pets***, either..). ..😍 . at least give them a chance to grow up .! … Become physical adults first.. . then they can make that decision to fly .. for themselves.. 🤨🤔…⚰️⚰️⚰️…

  4. So .. according to this report .. another Tenerife could happen .. o.k. .😱😳😵..🤯.😭.. . just another reason why I will NEVER fly… anywhere .. in anything… ever… May they all Rest In Peace.🙏🕯️🌹..😔 ..I REALLY hope and pray🙏🛐 that all communications between air traffic control and pilots drastically improves.. and the 'no questioning the main pilot's judgement ' , sense – of – entitlement .. b.s. ceases .. permanently.. … forever.. no more .. just.. no more..🙏🌐🍀 … 🙁

  5. That time factor is redicules. The cost is also redicules. It's all about greed. America needs to think safety with a better time and lower cost. Its not the workers it's the corporate greed

  6. I flew once when I was 13. That was 1978. I was scared senseless. Since then I've always said that God gave me lungs so I can hold my breath and swim, but he did NOT give me wings to fly.

  7. A series of bad decisions and bad luck, if just one thing didn’t happened, it probably wouldn’t have occurred, like say the fog or the terrorist attack. Well it’s 2022 now.

  8. Id have to say the plane that hit the pentagon had to be the worst… I mean it completely vaporized.. No engines.. Nothing left………..

  9. how aBout limit what planes can land at certain runways… Tenariff is not a appropriate runway for a 747 or anything larger then a DC 3

  10. 2017 a Canadian 767, flying at night almost landed on top of 5 jetliners waiting to take off at San Francisco Int. Canadian pilot thought passenger plane lights were runway lights. Pulled up missing lead jetliner by 300 ft. All that Dutch Kamikaze pilot cared about was STUPID K.L.M. overtime regulations. 583 dead. It is already known Kapitan Jacob Van Zanten could not wait 3-5 minutes in fog. Arrogant impatient, drunk pilot.

  11. Profits before people is the main problem with this and other industries. Until people start valuing other people more than money, these totally preventable collisions will continue, which is one of the many reasons why I no longer fly.
