Air Crash in Mangalore

Another air crash! now in Mangalore. I wake up every morning with expectation to get some good news on TV or radio. Saturday, however, was not the right day for me, as it made me feel shocked and sad. The plane crash news in Mangalore was a news not worthy of to begin a day fresh and relaxed. Investigation has started as to why this AI flight crashed down? The black box is still not found - once found it will perhaps make things clear as to what exactly happened at the time of landing.

The plane was carrying some 160 passengers, including pilot and cabin crew, from Dubai. I was thinking as to some passengers could be those who had gone on a holiday to Dubai with family and was flying back home with bags full of souvenirs and fresh memories of trips to cherish.

No one can tell when bad luck comes. Could anyone of them ever guessed what will be their fate a few minutes later, when they were about to land in Mangalore? The answer is no, since who in their wildest dream could ever imagine of some grave danger like this! Indeed it’s a real sorry state of affairs for all of us and we, as Indians, extend our best wishes to those who have lost their near and dear ones.


God Bless
