See link as it was worthy of news that
the United States which has over 5,000 take offs and landing every day, with so
many aircraft criss-crossing this vast country of 300Million people, had its
first fatality yesterday, when an engine (one of only two in a Boeing 737) blew
up in mid-air, due to metal fatigue. The debris hit a window which punctured
and a woman was sucked out and pulled back in who later died of her injuries,
while the aircraft landed on one engine, smoothly at the nearest airport as
soon as the accident happened and dropped from its 32,000 feet altitude.
Frankly, no newspaper in the United
States is making any reference to this phenomenal safety record, as they do not
want to brag about such a safety record. However for those Russian and Chinese
agents who are out there in Sri Lanka who loves to bash the USA, understand
that this is what capitalism is all about.
Southwest Airlines 51 years strong,
which alone has more take offs and landings than any airline in the world,
including Emirates, which is just an international airline, (as Dubai just has
one airport! To the USA’s thousands) had its first fatality yesterday.
Let us give credit where credit is due
please, to the efforts of the US airline industry, its safety measures and
their procedures, that despite the huge competition of the airline industry in
that country, they have been able to maintain their safety standards.
It is just as well for the anti-american
Sri Lankan people who find every reason to bash the USA for every little thing,
including their absolutely crazy President, who has been the only one Brash enough
to have been able to get the North Korean Dictator to a summit, to agree to
temper his nuclear ambitions, is a Country that deserves its reputation as a
land of opportunity.
Not Russia, not China nor any other
country has the opportunities available and the freedoms their people enjoy,
within their own country, and so due to jealousy on the part of the degenerates
of Sri Lanka, especially some journalists who have had a USA education, should
eat humble pie from such information.
If China or Russia had this record, they will surely buy full page ads in every newspaper in the world to brag about it, but they will never be able to achieve this kind of result due to their system of government that DOES not hold people accountable for their actions.
ReplyDeleteWe live in a funny world don't we. We fail to notice the most important things and fill our media with such crap. You were able to point out one of the most significant points of the 21st Century that the whole world has forgotten, but is a feat of phenomenal greatness, when in this period of 9 years when Ten billion journeys have taken place for one fatality, when in motor cars you have thousands dying each week. Of course this is scheduled commercial airlines and not small aircraft that are privately owned or chartered for a journey.
