Two Dead In LaGuardia Plane Ground Crash

[citygator]

Reportedly 2 people were killed, a pilot and co-pilot, during a runway crash of a passenger jet with 100 on board when it hit a fire truck.

Mod Edit: Thread title changed and opening post altered. There is no evidence Trump has anything to do with this tragedy and politicizing it from the top isn't going to produce effective discussion

How can a fire truck not see a plane landing?

Those jet landing lights are very bright.

Maybe we should be dealing with issues here as opposed to all around the world that really has nothing to do with us?

Aviation Safety Network​

The Aviation Safety Network (ASN) is an online database and information service focused on aviation accidents, incidents, and safety issues worldwide. It provides detailed records of civil aviation occurrences to promote transparency and learning within the aviation community. ASN is widely used by professionals, researchers, and media for reliable safety data and historical analysis.

Key facts​

• Founded: 1996
• Owner: Flight Safety Foundation
• Coverage: Over 25,000 accidents and incidents
• Headquarters: The Netherlands
• Primary focus: Commercial, military, and general aviation safety data

Purpose and scope​

Aviation Safety Network’s primary mission is to document and share factual data about aviation accidents and safety-related events. The database covers both fatal and non-fatal incidents, including those involving commercial airliners, cargo aircraft, and military transports. Its scope extends back to the early days of powered flight, making it one of the most comprehensive historical repositories available.

Data and methodology​

ASN compiles its records from official investigation reports, civil aviation authorities, and credible media sources. Each entry typically includes the date, location, aircraft type, operator, registration, flight details, and summaries of causes or contributing factors. The site also tracks hijackings and safety statistics by year and region.

Role and influence​

The database has become a trusted reference for journalists, safety analysts, and regulatory bodies. By maintaining open access to accident information, ASN supports global safety improvements through transparency and trend analysis. Its data is often cited in academic studies, media coverage, and government safety reviews.

Relationship with Flight Safety Foundation​

Since 2006, Aviation Safety Network has operated as a project of the Flight Safety Foundation, an independent nonprofit dedicated to reducing aviation risk worldwide. This partnership enhances the credibility and outreach of ASN, integrating its data into broader safety research and advocacy efforts.

Too early to know who is at fault, the pilots, the fire truck itself or the tower could have put them together, this is pretty bizarre, two pilots RIP. Interesting to find out who was at fault here.

This is one of the unintended consequences of Jill Biden's 4-year open border. That and Democrat's refusal to fund for the American people's safety. So now we have a party that has totally abrogated their responsibility to the American people in favor of illegal aliens. People are being murdered but Democrats still don't care, as long as they keep getting their illegal votes.

Triumphettes have now got losing down to a fine art .​

Why waste time in the air when you can lose without even getting up there ?​

Excellent preparation for excuses over in the ME.

See his new book , The Art of Not Winning

Very terrible. Evidently the plane hit an emergency response vehicle that was on its way to assist with another vehicle.

Pilot had clearance to land
Traffic Control cleared a firetruck to cross the runway

Only Americans could manage it .
Probably some fan - nuts recreating a Marx Brothers classic or a Tom and Jerry stunt .

Just want the Democrats want. They are not funding TSA because want to cause as much economic damage as possible before the midterms. It’s obvious to us sane folks.

Reportedly 2 people were killed, a pilot and co-pilot, during a runway crash of a passenger jet with 100 on board when it hit a fire truck. You have to wonder how much the airport chaos from Trump's incompetence led to the issue.

Do we though? You don't think it's a bit insane to attribute every bad thing that happens to one person?

 

[Zincwarrior]

Just want the Democrats want. They are not funding TSA because want to cause as much economic damage as possible before the midterms. It’s obvious to us sane folks.

Or maybe we can discuss the news and pray for the victims without playing Blue team Red team.
