88 people are confirmed dead after an awful plane crash yesterday in Phuket Thailand. It all happened Thailands first budget airline “One-Two-Go.” There was a horendous storm with violent winds and rain, the airplane had circled the runway multiple times before attempting to land, where it’s said he called to back out of the landing at the last minute, but failed. When the airplane struck the ground it broke in half and there were flames shooting out. About 40 people escaped the firey plane and were taken to the hospital where 5 remain in critical condition. there were a total of 123 passenders on the plane and most are said to be foreigners. This is the worst accident in Thailand since a plane crashed in 1998 and killed 101 people.
This is a serious incident that many people were harmed in. It’s sad to think it came down to the piolot making a critical decision that went bad and now he can easily be blamed for the deaths of all these people. I think you still have to look at the other side of things also, as to how much gas did they have and other interesting specifications like those, and if there was a break in the weather and then it changed and made them crash. Overall i think it’s an interesting article and shows how unexpected these types of events really are, it also shows how you should treasure your life and be thankful.
