The last pics the pilot was probably watching Terminator 2 when they're in the canals.

That they'd fly over it - They obviously didn't realize they were still on the ground,

Except when people die.

[JakeMD 107]

No one died in any of those pictures, they are all just small mishaps

Wrong. someone died in picture #4

That one skidded off the runway at Chicago Midway, rolled into 55th ave and crushed a car, killing a 6 year old boy in the rear seat.

Gingerblokey - Thats an Royal Navy Sea Harrier in Pic 8

Didn't they do a Mythbusters on pic 24 (the shredded tail pic)?

Certainly wouldn't like to be on one of those Planes when something like that happens

I think the eighth picture is of a Royal Navy Sea Harrier and the Delta Airline is photo shopped.  Otherwise thees are interesting pictures.

Unfortunately, someone did die in this accident, a young boy in a car after Southwest Airlines Flight 1248 ran off the runway into an intersection striking three cars. Sorry, I have a somewhat photographic memory and I remember this as it was only a few years ago back in 2005.

Tragic and costly.  It is really too bad.

Then there is the incident of the programmer who got the sign wrong on the autopilot for a fighter which will be unnamed.  Everything was just fine on fly-by-wire until the plane crossed the equator and the plane automatically inverted.  Something between the inertial navigation system and the autopilot got a sign negative which indicated the plane was upside down, so the autopilot corrected ti.

My first reaction:

...oops.

Accidnets happen and unfortunately people die in them sometimes
