Just hope the ground crew is not feeling jittery over QZ8501 incident and blundered their routine. AA does not need another incidence after QZ, air-return, and the over-shoot at the Philippines.

Perhaps TF have to touch base with the ground and flight crews to steady them.

AA is American Airlines bro.

 

It's normal la. Heard it's the APU faulty. Not the engine. The media is making small thing become big matter. These kind of things do happen in the other parts of the world. And their media dont even report it in the news. Our media is killing Malaysia Tourism Industry with this kind of news. It will make people more scared of flying when it is actually much safer to fly if compare to other modes of transportation.

Ya..just happened that AA is under the microscope now, any little issues will be captured by the press and sensationalized. Nevertheless, the incidence does happened and will put some dent to the confidence level of AA 's passengers.

A few days ago Awani reported on an MH WEATHER DIVERSION! How is that news?!

 

Media scare mongering is the worst - and get this: in terms of accident rates 2014 is one of the SAFEST in modern aviation history!

Yeah, we should be more worried about Malaysia's road safety statistics. Almost 7,000 people died on Malaysian roads in 2013 (the last available statistics). That is equivalent to about 39 fully loaded Airasia A320s crashing!

either use full terms, AirAisa. OR else use AK = AirAsia Malaysia. AA (America Airline) is nothing to do with AirAsia!

2014 can be consider safest worldwide but not in Malaysia or Indonesia since 3 disastrous incidents were exclusively here. Nothing happen elsewhere.

Found this very informative image of Be-200Chs.

From some of the mangled seats recovered, the distortion suggested a backward impact motion of the seat or aircraft. Enforcing the theory that the plane hit water tail first.

Seat in photo show it has bent backwards.

The press is getting jittery now. Even a diversion becomes a major reportable event.

Hottest topic - once you got targeted, you would always get targeted for a period of time.
