In the Chapecoense accident, the pilot was the company's owner. The company had problems paying before refueling and was financially unstable. I believe the pilot was avoiding the MAY DAY to avoid the investigation that would certainly discover the nonstop in Bogotá and probably stop its flights.

From Australia. Very good point. I”m ex RAAF and once flew with a private pilot, who unknown to me at the time, skimped on fuel. In spite of the engine (Bonanza 36) cutting out for a very short time when h3 executed a turn onto vectors for Canberra at about 20 miles, over mountains, he refused to call a PAN or declare an emergency. When I leant over to check his fuel, it was almost stuck to E. I told him I would never fly with him again, and informed the owner of aircraft. Harsh, but he would have ended up killing someone.

I remember as a young pilot being told a cautionary tale by a Marine major. A few years prior he and another lieutenant were transiting from Florida up the East Coast in a Huey. They were carrying an internal fuel bag so that they could fly non-stop. Whenever they reached a low fuel state they would turn on an electric pump to transfer fuel to the regular tanks. At one point he reached down to turn on the pump and found that it was already on, and he realized that they had forgot to turn it off the last time they refilled the tanks. Their extra fuel had been vented from the overflow vent. As luck would have it they weren't too far from an Air Force base so they contacted the tower and requested to land and have a fuel truck meet them at the end of the field. The tower asked if they were declaring emergency fuel to which he replied that they'd rather not. The tower allowed them to land and a fuel truck came out. However, one of the base safety officers also came out and had them fill out a refueling report. He and the other pilot spent months worrying and waiting for the report to come back to their command. It never did. His advice: Own up to your mistakes so that others can learn and to save yourself many sleepless nights.

On October 2, 1970, about six weeks prior to the Marshall University crash, 31 passengers - 14 of whom were Wichita State, football players - were killed in a similar airplane crash in Colorado. The cause of the crash was determined to be pilot error - controlled flight into terrain.

We are Marshall. Everyone in the Tri-state knows someone or a family affected. There were a lot of factors, the weather, steep terrain, the nearby and confusing lights of a refinery and lack of ILS. This flight went almost directly over my home a few miles away. Whenever I fly into HTS I think about this tragedy.

There was another college football team lost in a plane crash in 1970. My dear high school friend, Richard Stine, and 28 other people from Wichita State University died in a plane crash on their way to play Utah State. There were two charter planes carrying the team, coaches, university officials, state legislators and others to the game. Richard was on the "gold" plane, a Martin 404 twin engine propliner. Other team members and staff were on the "black" plane which arrived safely in Logan Utah. The gold plane crashed into a Colorado mountain near Loveland pass. It was called pilot error. The plane carried 37 souls. 29 died immediately, two more died later of their injuries.

Small nit "flight crews must execute a missed approach if the visual reference has not been obtained on reaching the MDA" its a minimum descent altitude. The other would be the decision altitude or DA. MDAs mean you can follow the altitude until you reach the missed approach point or MAP, usually located at the runway threshold. This is why MDA approaches are often called "dive and drive approaches", because you descent to the MDA, then toodle along for a while looking for the runway.

It's hard to understand how many of these fatal crashes are caused by pilots inconceivably ignoring standard protocols. It makes me wonder how much of this goes on and puts so many members of the flying public at more risk than they ever realize. The Marshall crash was just stupid. I think the pilots simply forgot there was an MDA restriction and they just blew through 1200 feet right into the ground. The LaMia flight is more concerning. They gambled and lost without any concern for the passengers. Gambling on "Can we get there flying right to the edge" is something a commercial pilot can't do. You want risk your life flying your Cessna on fumes, go right ahead but leave me out of it!

It took six decades and a global pandemic before US Figure Skating allowed an entire team to fly on the same plane-in the latter case, the charter to the 2022 Beijing Olympics.

You would think even in that era, air travel was the best option, depending where you were ? It seems after all these years, aviation have not learnt unfortunately. Also referring to the tragedy of 1977, on tenerife, unfortunately so many "if's" on that day in question. So many lives lost, incident could have been avoided, if they had waited 5 or 10 minutes for the weather to clear. That incident had happen over 40+ years ago, hopefully we have learnt that over time air travel would be safe for all. Hopefully so. After all these years have passed, this incident is still the most tragic lose of life, on ground, not in flight.

Both accidents resulted from evident instances of inadequate piloting, insufficient training, poor decision-making, and limited experience. Minimum Descent Altitudes (MDA) are established for critical reasons. Pilots, upon spotting potential visuals below the MDA, should still opt for a go-around and adhere to missed approach procedures. It is imperative to follow approach charts meticulously; they are meticulously designed and planned with specific intentions in mind. Tragically, these incidents led to unnecessary loss of lives due to the pilots' incompetence and reckless actions, which are incompatible with aviation standards.

The airport that serves Huntington WV is several miles away,there is sort of a low area where the Big Sandy and the Ohio rivers converge "KenOVA" where three States lie close together I think the airport is called "TriState" Much of Huntington is more attractive and has larger house lots than most of the close in VA suburbs of Washington DC there are tank farms and commercial developments in the low area near the rivers,I think the airport is sort of carved into a hillside above the river low ground area and very near the cemetery (Hillcrest)

The landscape around Bogota and Medellin is extremely undulating with steep hills, dense aforestation and almost no flat ground whatsoever. There is absolutely no area to ditch an aircraft, especially at night. They really were doomed, due to the captain's poor decision. Also, Bogota is located at 9,000ft altitude, so flying at 15,000ft doesn't give much room for error.
