巧合
The wreckage of AF447 has finally been found, 228 people confirmed dead. However, the reason for the downing of the plane is not found yet. I really have to agree with something pointed out by my friend; Air France always have the first crashes in the 21st century.
25 July 2000 - Air France Flight 4590
Concorde
All 109 onboard and 4 on ground were killed
This is the very first crash of a Concorde which shocked the whole world. While on the takeoff run, the left fuel tank burst into fire as the tyres struck a metal piece which dropped from a Continental Airlines DC-10 which just tookoff from the same runway minutes earlier. The tyre fragments punctured the fuel tank which caused it to burst into fire.
2 August 2005 - Air France Flight 358
Airbus A340-300
All 309 onboard survived with 43 injuries
The very first crash of an Airbus A340. Landing in Toronto - Pearson International Airport in poor weather, the plane overshot the runway and landed in a trench 300 metres from the threshold of the runway.
1 June 2009 - Air France Flight 447
Airbus A330-200
All 228 onboard killed
The first crash of an Airbus A330. This particular model had a perfect safety record before the crash.
Today was a short day for lessons. SMKT test in the morning was enough to kill my brain cells, followed by FPD tutorial which I did not listen at all and the SMKT consultation which no one actually asked any questions. Had an early dismissal at about 1.34pm. Went to Pines Cafe for lunch and finally got to eat my Black Pepper Beef Rice Set. Been wanting to eat it for 2 days now. Lol.
Tests are flooding in. Daniel, hold in there, 2 more to go!! M&C and OPC! Kampatehneh!!!
