"I believe a lot of airplane incidents aren’t given much headline, and I’m thinking they’re letting the people know now because I bet they don’t know what to do. Sounds similar to fires recently."
@Carolyn said:
"I’m about to hit the amtrack website because I have to go to Chicago but I’m good on planes now."
@Lili said:
"Good Lord! What is going on?"
@poohda_1978 said:
"I don't know what's going on but usually fly from Atlanta to BWI Maryland every other week but when I leave Maryland on Monday I'll be on Amtrax."
@Elsenordelosfrijoles said:
"Did we all forget that regulations have been cut? A few years ago people working at airlines started letting people know that no one was checking their work anymore. That planes were being made shoddily now."
Lady reacts to news of air incidents
In a related story reported by Legit.ng, a lady said she was now scared of flying after two aircraft collided with each other by their tails at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, DC.
The lady was wondering what was going on in the US in recent days as there have been two reported aviation incidents recently, but no injuries were reported in the latest collision.
She joked that she was going to be driving to her destination and avoid air travel, and if driving was not an option, she would go by train.
