Exactly one year ago on this day, October 29, at this very minute, 6:33 a.m. Jakarta time, JT610, a Boeing 737 MAX 8 with the registration PK-LQP operating from Jakarta to Pengkal Penang crashed into the Java Sea.
Condolences to the 189 passengers on board and all of those who were affected.
I remember how I saw @Swiss post a YouTube “post” (not a video) showing a video of something like Dangerous Airlines to fly. It said lion air with a frown emoji (😔) and i got confused. I googled it, and the rest is obvious
My deepest condolences to everyone affected by this incident.
By the way, did you all know that the day before the flight crash, the same plane with a different crew was about to crash, but an off-duty pilot in the cockpit who was taking a ride to another place disabled the MCAS and saved the people on board.
However, the next day, a different crew was on board the same plane and unfortunately, we all know what happened.
Truly horrific accident, along with ET302, that claimed so many innocent lives, because of cutting corners.
It is my hope that these disasters, and the problems they brought to light, go on to initiate positive action at Boeing.
Waking up on the morning of October 29th to the news of the crash, will be a moment I will remember for the rest of my life.
RIP to all souls lost to greed and corruption within this industry…
This is a truly devastating day for not just aviation but for the whole world this is the accident that started it all I stand with all the victims of JT610 and their families
