Passenger jet breakes in two! How safe are those planes we ride everyday?

GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.

Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.

The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry.

Then why not post this picture along with your irrelevant thread title and article?

No, BECAUSE THERE'S MASSIVE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LOSING A CHUNK OF FUSELAGE SKIN AND THE ****ING FUSELAGE BREAKING IN HALF.

Menstral obviously fancies himself a genius giant.

He must spend his days and nights with drooling window lickers to be the quickest mind in his knitting circle.

Frankie, with all the great Persians throughout history, it's really a shame someone as dishonorable and ignorant as you would be their representation on ChiefsPlanet.

Such a shame.

Sure, but that obviously wasn't the case here. You are clearly clutching at the Aloha Airlines flight in a rather clumsy and feeble attempt to save face.

If we should believe you are who you are, are you this incapable of attention to detail? You know that would be pretty scary by itself.

Lucky for all of us, you aren't an aircraft maintainer since obviously reading comprehension isn't a strong point with you. (kind of important in this line of work!)

Frankie comprehends just fine. But he prefers to spin the words so that they're situated with whatever point he's attempting to make. Let's put this into car terms...

Frank has just posted a picture of an auto accident in which the frame is twisted horribly. But he's thinking of the time a hood came unlatched and blew open at 65 MPH. Two completely different scenarios happening under different stressors. But he's equating them as one because it works better for his argument.

Frankie's not toast! Frankie can't be toast, because Frankie can't be wrong, EVAR!

Frankie might be Kuku, though.

Remember the classic "I bet I have a higher IQ than you!", between Skip and GoChiefs?
Good times.

**loochy** · 08-02-2011, 07:22 PM

Oh yeah?!?! My IQ is190. How can you be sure of this? Well, this is the internet so it MUST be true.

**Donger** · 08-02-2011, 07:27 PM

Wait, Frankie isn't claiming that his IQ is 159, is he?

Well, that's what I inferred from this:

Donger's thought process is always gospel. Here's another example.
