Geez... hadn't heard the FO was the survior.
We were discussing over in the AirDisaster.com forums and from several who've flown out of there quite a bit, it appears they attempted to depart runway 26 which was not only in poor condition due to cracked concrete, but is only 3600' long. There is a real chance they took off on the wrong runway by accident and simply didn't have enough runway for departure.
Definitely a tragic accident. I hope the FO does survive though.

he was pulled from the wreakage by a local police officer and two airport personal (some type of emergency responders)
that went to the crash site once the code 3 was announced
appearently the crew chose the wrong runway
3400 ft general aviation
instead of the 7000 ft main runway
with all the check list I can;t imagime how this can happen

Disasters.com?? lord help us Accident Investigations R US
Im sorry - I think Ill wait for the NTSB to make a statement based on
real information NOT on the Monty Orangeball school of Journalism and
Aircraft crashes and Stuff
Sorry if Im short - as usual - its people OUTSIDE the industry making
poorly informed and poorly thought out statments as FACT and within
in the industry its more of a "There but for the grace of God attitude"
BTW Mr Trott when was the last time you were in the REAL KLEX?

I totally agree
I know this much about it.....................
There, not much to have a discussion about yet methinks
We all see the obvious...wreckage in a field and maybe it did take off or try to on the wrong runway, maybe not......but how it got into that situation we just don't know and speculation will only cloud fact when known..

You know what Lief - Stuff It. I never said *I* made those comments nor did I ever say that I'd been to KLEX. Re-read the post.
For all of the slagging you people give me about calling people names, it's funny that it's apparently also acceptable for you to go and make fun of a forum you have absolutely no clue about.

Garry, I'm sorry, but Lief's post was more than uncalled for. Firstly, he made statements that are directly in error, and then he proceeded to do exactly what I've been told "don't do" several times - made derogatory statements about another forum. Funny thing is, from what he said, he hasn't ever been over to AD.com to see what the forums are like or who's in there which makes it even more underhanded for him to make those comments.

We all have issues and there are ways to deal with them
But using phases like "Stuff it" to another member is out of order.
The details of the disagreement are of no interest to me
The lack of respect is.
Thank you
