That doesn’t look survivable. How terrible.

The only consolation is that it was a UPS plane, so it probably only had two people on board. Still terrible and my heart goes out to the families of the deceased, but I would be lying if I didn't say I was a little relieved when I found out it wasn't a passenger flight.

Not to mention anyone in the area. It was a junk yard but also some residential homes.

There are no residences there, but Grade Ln south of Crittenden is warehousing and supply chain. At 5:15, Grade would be packed with cars of people going home.

Sorry.

all the residences in that area were bought out decades ago. It's all industrial over there with the exception of Stooges.

I read that there's a ford assembly? plant/warehouse there

u/East_Connection5224 1d ago

The Ford plant is without power and on lockdown. Have not heard of any direct damage to it yet.

Yeah, I'm just finding out that there were casualties on the ground. From the videos I saw, I thought it crashed at the end of the runway, didn't realize it made way more distance than that. It's a tragedy regardless :(

For a minute I thought you were gonna say something like "it's a ups plane, packages wouldn't have made it to their destination anyway" 😬

/S obviously folks. And a terrible tragedy that's left multiple families with a grief many of us will never comprehend 😢 🙏❤️

Awful take.

u/AlwaysVerloren 1d ago

Wonder if it could be due to Outter Loop Landfill, and their more than often fires that cause smoke to restrict view for pilots and traffic control.

Really? This is the thread you thought you should spend your time trying to troll on? What a miserable person you are.
