Default Re: More than 50 airplane accidents in 5 days in the USA

The fact that ALTERMAP removed 49 of the 54 accidents/incidents so quickly, I suppose it's not something they want the world to know. It starts with a guy who gets lost on the www & stumbles by chance into the Altermap page & next thing you know it's on CNN. I mean, with the 9/11 overkill this week, anything that flies & crashes is bount to be bend in an item, let alone 54 in 5 days.
Besides that the crisis hit hard on airline companies. Every ticket sold is a ticket sold. Perhaps the math is okay, but it's not the kind of publicity they die for.
