Do you prefer dying over the
ocean or on land? Perhaps when you take
a flight from Malaysia the airliner should ask you that question before you board
your flight. Let me start with prayers for the families of 534 people who died
from two flights from Malaysia who will never see the people they love ever
again. Why are these flight disasters happening and why from Malaysia? Why
isn’t the United Nations demanding answers?
Everyone is skittish about flying
in general now. Civilians, innocent people seem to be at risk. It is official.
The airlines’ future may be at risk too. The wreckage from Malaysia Airlines
Flight 17 near Shakhtersk, Ukraine
recently had bodies literally falling from the air into a farmer’s field of
sunflowers. This is why whatever God you believe in that created you does not
let you see one moment into your future and certainly leaves your own death the
biggest surprise of your life if any of this rant is making any sense at all.
Well not too many things in the news make sense anymore anyway.
Malaysia Airlines is in deep
trouble now with financial problems, missing plane and now a crash is hard news
to overcome. What is the hardest thing to overcome is the evil hands at the
controls of sophisticated weapons ruining lives for political stupid
reasons. Malaysia Airlines had financial
problems even before the disappearance of a plane on March 8. How do planes just disappear? At this point could we blame UFO’s? All we
know is that there are still very distraught families of 299 people demanding answers and
receiving nothing. Can the airline
continue to function after the latest catastrophe?
The reason Flight 370 went
missing with 239 people aboard is unknown, and Flight 17 with 295 people
aboard, appears to have been shot down by military forces. Both flights were tragedies from Malaysia
Airlines. The Airline
and Malaysian tourism was already
suffering before March. The Airline has
lost money for years because of higher fuel costs and airport charges,
competition from lower cost carriers and weakening currency against the dollar.
So does that make people disposable? I
hope not. Did these evil murderers target a week vulnerable Airline?
Legally it is imperative that the
airline and relevant authorities determine whether the crash is the result
of external fire from the ground, and
thus, outside Malaysian Airlines control, or a problem with the aircraft or
with its crew. There are still lingering concerns about the missing
other plane. The airline absolutely must
take urgent, tangible and meaningful steps to show that it is in control of its
destiny. This act of violence
shook up the entire airline industry
Thursday. Stocks were down. American
Airlines -4%, Alaska Air -2.6%, Delta -3.5%. Is this airline’s very bad luck going to
trickle down to all other airline companies?
The plane that went down
Thursday, a Boeing 777-200ER is a
similar model to the one that disappeared on March 8 with 239 people aboard on
a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
The search for that flight has focused on the Indian Ocean about 1,000 miles
west of Australia, based on intermittent signals that a satellite picked up.
Malaysia Airlines can be compared to
Jet Blue in size and revenue. Tell the monsters to stop making their political
statements at the expense of innocent people and vulnerable small Airlines.
