I agree, But did you know only 14 passengers were killed, and two crew members, on the MD crash?And this wreck is close to topping it. Those BUDDs did a good job protecting passengers. Most passengers died from the fire, not the actual trauma. If you ever look at an amfleet, you can see it has good collision posts with reinforcements. The fact that these Bilevels are so big makes it easier to penetrate them, however, and the lack of reinforcement doesn't make it any better. |
