When that manifest is releases and it's more white people than Indians, they won't apologize

The passengers included 217 adults, 11 children and two infants, a source told Reuters. Of them, 169 were Indian nationals, 53 were Britons, seven Portuguese, and one Canadian, Air India said.

It's a Boeing 787-8, there were MANY problems with this plane, including the electrics, the batteries, the composite material used and falsified safety records. I wouldn't be surprised if this was another instance of Boeing cutting corners with disastrous results.

Business regulation and oversight is one of the things Maga is scaling back. So that business can do shyt like this even more. Cut corners know they create dangers and not address them. The inherent greed of capitalism cannot be checked by the company itself it must be mandated

Pilots maybe could have abandoned the take off roll. That plane went far down the runway before it got enough thrust to lift. I think they said it got 600 feet off the ground before you see that decrease in attitude almost immediately. Sad ordeal. RIP to the victims.

Plane crashed into a hostel of a college which had about 74 students staying there. Already reports of mass casualties. Just sad. God bless them
