    To make matters worse, suggestion it's crashed into a hospital, but unclear to what type of hospital.

    If the footage is genuine that the news channel is now broadcasting, the tail of the plane is wedged into the top of a buildiing.

    Shocking thing to happen really.

    Still aviation travel is safer than driving the car. Its just when it goes wrong it goes really wrong and you have zero control over it which is the scary part.

    I keep hearing about boeing safety checks being all over the place (and the boeing whistle blower who "suicided" with two bullets in his head) and its not a surprise that its another boeing plane that has been involved in another accident

    Just after take-off as well so the plane will have been at maximum fuel, making it even more deadly on impact.

    Terrible news.

    They just can't help themselves at this point.

    It's basically a fetish.

    News Broadcaster NDTV is stating there is one survivor, after police had reported no survivors. Will need to await more confirmation on this, as it will be chaotic on the ground, so will have to wait and see on this.

    The aircraft for some reason failed to gain altitude on take-off, new and full footage...

    40 year old British passenger has surived the crash. Picture of him in a hospital bed giving interviews (on the news channels).

    He said he heard aloud bang on take-off...

    They interviewed a retired pilot on the news about the crash and he said the plane could not have taken off because the take off flaps were clearly not deployed so pilot error or control malfunction, another American Jet Liner

    The last few seconds before the crash must have been horrifying

    I’ve seen plenty of take off flaps and can confirm this.

    I find it in a weird way amusing, not funny like amusing, but I've travelled on planes more times than I can remember - there's always been this thing where people don't like landing, and it's never bothered me, because I've always felt a pilot can abort it if a problem. It actually happened to me once in Miami, the plane was just about to land and at the lowest point it can abort, it did so and you heard the roar of the engines to take you into a steep climb.

    My fear has always been take-off, after that nowt bothers me, people ask why take-off, my reply is because if you have a problem as you leave the ground, you are ****ed, absolutely ****ed, no abort, no rescue plan, no let's quickly steer this way, you are going to hit the ground like a **** ton of bricks, 100 tons to be more precise. Hence why i find it weirdly amusing in a dark sense.

    Agreed.

    And at take off the plane is at its heaviest and most flammable.

    And what about that bloke who survived?!

    Didn't just survive...he walked away from a frickin plane crash with just a few cuts and bruises.

    <yikes>
