Once is a surprise, twice is weird, if we get a third going down it's a conspiracy!

This is bunny and friends. He is fed up waiting for everyone to help him out, and decided to help himself instead!
Nice that they were able to save at least one person.. child in fact.
Bad taste and bang out of order. Be ashamed of yourself.

im sorry guys, im taking this as a joke now
our boiler broke so we has no heating or hot water, this is the bloody result ^^
I'm sorry.
It wasn't deliberetley made to offened.
It was a light hearted comment. A bit like Pedobear. Not taking into account the serious side of subject at hand. That was dumb.
Sorry

Mistakes get made, we've all put our foot in it at some point, don't sweat it!
Nothing worse then a plane crash & the hopelessness that goes with looking for survivors, its a miracle one was saved tbh!
On a different line of thought i wouldn't want to be in charge of the Airbus 3 series line up, or their stock holders atm. Two crashes in as many weeks is gunna raise a lot of eyebrows about their airworthiness!

As opposed to what series? That's like a boeing 747 crashing and saying that therefore 787s and all other 7 series planes are unsafe.
It doesn't really matter who made the plane anyway - if it's not maintained properly then it's a problem.
From the time I travelled to the UK for my studies, I used to return home during each holiday; that's 5 flights a year. For the most part I flew on my national carrier, SriLankan Airlines, as well as Emirates.
SriLankan only fly A380s these days and the advantage here is they are the only airline from Colombo to offer direct flights to and from London daily; Emirates on the other hand means flying via Dubai.
I'm with Kalniel on the 'maintenance' issue.
There a few reports flying around about the airline company this plan was owned by. Seems they did not think maintenance of an aircraft a top priority.
Another sad loss of life!
Nothing else appears to have been mentioned. Wonder if this time they'll find the black box.* The one over the Atlantic I think they're on the verge of giving up over. :/
*Edit - appears they have :

They already have.
My mistake, just had a google of the Airbus & Boeing line ups and im thinking along car terms (im an auto engineer)...3 series are smaller then 4 series which are again smaller then 5 series etc.
