Damn that's scary. Glad everyone was safe.
they need to just scrap that 737 max
Was that plane that went missing a 737 max?
1. what happened to the person who sat in the seat next to window???
2. you know that plane smelled like shit right?
3. alaska airlines dont even bother trying to defend yourselves. Flight attendants should have been passing out blank checks like bags of honey roasted peanuts as everyone was deboarding
4. if nothing else we know there wasnt one atheist on that fight!!...NOT. ONE.
5. if youve ever heard the term PUCKER FACTOR...but wasnt sure what it means..
THATS PUCKER FACTOR of about 10!!!
And ALL those people sitting by that window....made a diamond in their shorts

I feel you.
At the same time, this shit is extremely rare. Once you do that stats on flight crashes or malfunctions, you’ll see it’s real low.
It’s just the idea of being in the air and having your life in the hands of a pilot. That shit fucks with me.
I think that was airbus
Those fucking MAX planes

Yup very rare. Being in a plane is safer than being laid up in the hospital.
Going into hospital far riskier than flying: WHO
ReutersJuly 21, 20112:26 PM EDTUpdated 12 years ago
By Stephanie Nebehay
GENEVA (Reuters) - Millions of people die each year from medical errors and infections linked to health care and going into hospital is far riskier than flying, the World Health Organization said on Thursday.
"If you were admitted to hospital tomorrow in any country... your chances of being subjected to an error in your care would be something like 1 in 10. Your chances of dying due to an error in health care would be 1 in 300," Liam Donaldson, the WHO's newly appointed envoy for patient safety, told a news briefing.

This compared with a risk of dying in an air crash of about 1 in 10 million passengers, according to Donaldson, formerly England's chief medical officer.
"It shows that health care generally worldwide still has a long way to go," he said.
Hundreds of millions of people suffer infections linked to health care each year. Patients should ask questions and be part of decision-making in hospitals, which must use basic hygiene standards and WHO's checklist to ensure safe surgical procedures were followed.

More than 50 percent of acquired infections can be prevented if health care workers clean their hands with soap and water or an alcohol-based handrub before treating patients.
Of every 100 hospitalized patients at any given time, 7 in developed and 10 in developing countries will acquire at least one health care-associated infection, according to the United Nations agency.
"The longer patients stay in an ICU (intensive care unit), the more at risk they become of acquiring an infection," it said. Medical devices such as urinary catheters and ventilators are associated with high infection rates.

'HIGH-RISK BUSINESS'
Each year in the United States, 1.7 million infections are acquired in hospital, leading to 100,000 deaths, a far higher rate than in Europe where 4.5 million infections cause 37,000 deaths, according to WHO.
"Health care is a high-risk business, inevitably, because people are sick and modern health care is delivered in a fast-moving, high-pressured environment involving a lot of complex technology and a lot of people," Donaldson said.
A heart operation can involve a team of up to 60 people, about the same number needed to run a jumbo jet, he said.
"Infection is a big problem, injuries after falls in hospitals is a big problem and then there are problems that are on a smaller scale but result in preventable deaths. Medication errors are common," he said.
Risk is even higher in developing countries, with about 15 percent of patients acquiring infections, said Dr. Benedetta Allegranzi of the WHO's "Clean Care is Safer Care" program.
"The risk is really higher in high-risk areas of the hospitals, in particular ICUs or neonatal units in developing countries."
About 100,000 hospitals worldwide now use the WHO's surgical safety checklist, which the agency said has been shown to reduce surgery complications by 33 percent and deaths by 50 percent.
If the checklist is effectively used worldwide, an estimated 500,000 deaths could be prevented each year, it says.
"Frankly, if I was having an operation tomorrow I wouldn't go into a hospital that wasn't using the checklist because I wouldn't regard it as safe," said Donaldson.
Crazy how a fucking corporation has more clout than those that actually operate the fucker
It’s not like they had a choice to get up and runaway
Didn’t the movie fight club say when you breathe in the airbags the oxygen puts you into like a high?
Mid air . So I wonder what have happened had it reached max altitude
After watching the Netflix documentary on Boeing Air Planes being knowingly negligent in the past to reduce airline cost which resulted in two catastrophic crashes...........when it comes to the operations of there airplanes I make an effort not to book flights that has the name Boeing attached to it.
Bring adult diapers with when get on the plane lolI'm trying to get the nerve to fly. Seeing shit like this doesn't help
They can’t.
How do you travel in this part of the world?
I guess when they inspected the new plane they said it looks like it will fly
Two fatal 737-max crashes in four years that killed hundreds now this. Boeing just added a -9 to to the 737 designation and claimed a system flaw had been corrected but its essentially the same plane.
I'm not a fatalist but I also don't believe in tempting fate so if I have to fly somewhere you can bet it won't be on a 737-MAX aircraft unless there is absolutely no other choice.

If I own an airline, there’s no way I would buy anything from Boeing right now. They need to clean this up and clean this up immediately.Two fatal 737-max crashes in four years that killed hundreds now this.
