"...entire family in heaven at once..."


Completely concur. Excellent observation.
I don’t know what I would do as a young person if a tragic event wiped-out my parents, all my siblings, and left me as a sole survivor.
As an adult now I might have sufficient fortitude, yet even that is questionable.

So very very sad. God be with the aunts, uncles, grandparents who are trying to cope right now.

You got me, but if this was murder, whoever did it murdered an entire family. I hope there’s someone left willing to raise hell be it an accident or intentional.

Cessna engines are made by the very corrupt Textron Company. Many Cessna engines manufactured by Textron in the mid-eighties were seriously compromised by inefficiency and negligence. Several cadets at AF Academy perished due to faulty Textron engines. Don’t believe me?.. Look up the numerous lawsuits and settlements by Textron.

Such a great loss! Two excellent doctors who saved lives every day. And their gorgeous kids. Condolences to all their loved ones.

Mine, too. All of my grands are frequent fliers, and they take my great-grands along. I cannot even begin to imagine four or five of them gone in one instant!

“According to Wickepedia, since 2005 Nature Air has had 5 “reported incidents” (Two, including this crash involved fatalities).”

In an article shortly after the incident, I read it was a bargain airline...usually “$50 a flight.”

I thought...geez...both families have money. I wonder why they skimped. Then again, perhaps it’s the only airline available in the region, or the young tour guide uses it to reduce expenses for everyone.

Both families are on Facebook. They and their kids are there along with other relatives. Heartbreaking.

The Steinbergs apparently were world travelers. There’s a photo of them in Thailand last December-January. The grandmother (Steinberg) has photos of herself traveling all over the world. Pretty lady. It must be devastating for her.

Will a conspiracy theory be generated by someone somewhere over this?

...

Sure, but transportation is the most dangerous activity most of us do. Small planes are less safe than the bigger ones.

There was another small plane crash that killed a CEO in Australia a couple of days ago.

Backroads, a Berkeley, Calif.-based travel company, confirmed on Monday that (Amanda)Geissler was the trip leader killed in the New Year’s Eve tragedy.

Geissler helped lead the University of Wisconsin-Stout women’s basketball team to three regional conference titles, including both years she served as team captain.

When Ron Brown was killed in a plane crash, right after he said he was going to spill all the beans, they also killed everyone else on that flight....
