A Hewa Bora Airways DC-9 commerical airplane crashes into a residential area of Goma, DR Congo.

Plane crashes are increasing recently, have you guys realized it? I wonder why? What's funny is that people have a larger fear from terrorist attack rather from an accident of crash, while accidents are more occurring...

[Kamal_Farran]

Actually considering the proportion of plane accidents to the number of plane trips, and the number of car accidents to the number of car trips, plane travel continues to be the safest.

Congo is the country with more plane accidents in Africa in the past decade.

this particular airlines has been banned last week from travelling to the EU. It was the last airline permitted to go there from Congo.
