    if two planes get close enough to hit each other there is something wrong with the air control station, someone was not performing there job well.

    The Air France Airbus 380 hit the smaller plane while taxiing to the runway for takeoff. The smaller plane then caught on fire. Emergency crews eventually put the fire out.The passangers remained calm as they were alerted to what happened. After a few hours the plane was evacuated and everyone was safe. Their luggage was also ok. This happened because the smaller plane was landing when the other was getting ready for take off. Everyone was safe.

    I think that if your trained to fly then you should have to watch where your going just like in a car unless you cant see where your going or in this case flying.

    well apparently someone wasnt doing their job if planes hit each other unless there was communication mix ups. thats bad though how cant you notice 2 planes aboyt too hit.

    I agree. It takes a lot more than just being awake to control an airport. Someone wasnt doing their job.

    Someone should be fired.

    I do not understand how this happened. How could someone at the airport let the planes in the same area at the same time!

    The people flying this plane are not to blame, the people in the control towers should be able to maintain control of these kind of things. I wouldn't be too happy about this because of somebody else being careless.

    One person died after a small crashed right next to a airport in Miami. After the pilot took off he reported he was having problems and tryed to land back down at the airport. His plane went off course and came crashing down on a angle. The pilot died as the plane bursted into flames on impact.

    This is why the planes' condition should be checked, and double checked before taking off.
  • luke h on 03 May 11
     
    That must have been really bad

    This is why they need to be checking everything anymore. You never now what people do to planes, and i feel sorry for every body that family member's got hurt

    That is so sad u just never know what is going to happen. You jut have to be careful and be safe and look out for things.
  • nate w on 24 May 11
     
    this is not so much someone elses fault as it was mechanic failure. planes are safe but things do happen
  • mikael h on 24 May 11
     
    Airports should take more time to check their planes to make sure there is nothing wrong with them.

    A plain should be check more carefully before it takes off.

    We all hear about those false zombie outbreaks over in Europe, but that deadly Egyptian cobra on the loose in New York is a hole another story. A venomous cobra escaped from the New York Bronx Zoo. Workers say the snake was isolated in a non-public area of the building, what's next for the city of New York.

All the boys are fine. officials were confident the troop was safe, saying the scout master with the troop was very experienced and serves as a backpacking trainer. The average age of the youths is 14.

    Those kids were lucky they joined the boy scouts. This was probably a great learning experience for all of them.
  • jared p on 03 May 11
     
    First off the boy shouldve never been out of the site of the leaders of the scouts. It is a god thing that he has made it home safe and sound and was rescued.
  • Stephanie A on 03 May 11
     
    I think they were lucky that the plane came to save them. They were lucky they were in boy scouts so they new what to do to stay safe and warm.
  • Kristen D. on 03 May 11
     
    If they weren't Boy Scouts and knew how to survive they may have died. Boy Scouts could've saved their lives.
  • ryan p on 03 May 11
     
    That is a great thing that they found the troop!

    if they would have not took off then they would not have got lost in the first place

    The cockpit voice recorder from an Air France plane that crashed mysteriously nearly two years ago, killing all 228 people on board, has been found. This device will bring the investigation one step closer to knowing the cause.The discovery of the two data recorders may finally explain why the Airbus A330 dropped out of the sky and into the ocean. It took nearly two years to locate the bulk of the wreckage.

    Maybe by finding this and analyzing it they can make other airplanes safer!

    I actually came across this on AOL news the other day. Its amazing how big the ocean is and we are able to find such small pieces of history in the depths the dark water. It will be more interesting what they will find out in recent weeks.
  • ryan p on 03 May 11
     
    That is amazing. I wonder what the voice recorder has on it.
