Yes Forest, it would be horrible....
But, even in that story there are problems....
at the beginning:
"Terrified passengers told how they had gripped ropes and netting for nearly two hours"
Later in the story:
"The flight crew returned the plane to Kinshasa, 45 minutes after the flight took off for the southeastern city of Lubumbashi"
Which is true? If they were holding on for nearly 2 hours, then they did not return 45 minutes later, or vice versa.
Then:
"Two officials at Kinshasa's international airport told The Associated Press that the death toll was 129."
"He told AP that 350 people were aboard the plane when it took off, including 100 women and children -- meaning as many as 250 people had died. "
So, the death toll is anywhere from 129 - 250 according to CNN.
Something is still fishy here.
