  3. Mather is an old air force base converted into an air cargo terminal. Back in 2000 it was surrounded by mostly industrial business like the junk yard. Today there is a residential development between the air port and where the plane crashed.

  4. RIP these clips when they are finally put to rest. Do you think we are so heartless that we only like to see the part when unfortunate people died?

  5. it blows my mind that you can do everything right in life become succesful ect. and then die in a plane crash due to some error you never had anything to do with. rip all 40k ppl whov died in one.
