  • Well that's a write off.

  • this happens when you operate an aircraft older than chuck norris.

  • or maybe union members cant build airplanes

  • This is the worst company anyone could work for. Very unsafe. They love to screw their pilot group for flying safe and will make your life hell. I am suprised they haven't had more crashes. I know because i was a mechanic with the cowardly cocksuker for many years. Connie should be taken out back and worked over old way for all the peaple he hurt and killed for money.

  • Yeah theres no fixing that one.

  • And the reason why this happened is simply pilot error. He rejected his T/O after V1,wich you don't do normally. Altough this,he could have saved the aircraft and stopped it before it felt of the runway,in the overrun section,it he deployed the speedbrakes and his thrust reversers,wich he didn't. That means that he did not use his full deceleration abilities...This plane was saveble by simply pulling 2 handles in the cockpit...

  • In fact,the airframe did not simply "break",it fractured when the aircraft felt 4 meters deeper off the runway,that is +/- 13",with all that heavy load it fractured. The nose gear did not broke off,it was pushed inside with all the linkage and lifted the cargo floor up. The crew couldn't leave the aircraft trough the usual (lower) exit because the door could not be opened because of the lifted floor. The fact that the plane broke in 3 parts has nothing to do with metal fatigue.

  • Go suck a cack

  • I wana know why the airframe broke into 3...tell me please? Are you a pilot or a aircraft engineer because you seem to know a lot about aviation. BTW...I would go to aviation school if my life wasn't so busy right now.

  • its cock dipshit
