  This accident is the equivalent of: “BUT WAIT. THERE’S MORE.” And it’s not even close.

  I&apos;m a current pilot at Spirit. I&apos;ve heard the internal stories about this guy. He was a well-known jerk off and lousy pilot who did very dumb things and got himself fired. No one was surprised when this accident happened. The incident that finally shuffled him out the door was a hard landing somewhere in the Caribbean (at this time the MD80 was gone and it was an Airbus A319). It was hard enough that a few passenger oxygen masks dropped. He basically went around the cabin and reinstalled the masks, while asking the flight attendants to stay quiet about it. But the plane&apos;s telemetry sent a message back to Airbus in France that this plane had crashed. Airbus contacted Spirit to ask about the plane, and Spirit said they knew nothing of a crash and that the plane was enroute back to Florida. Airbus asked Spirit to ground the plane on arrival, and then all of this came out. He was fired immediately and the FAA eventually suspended his certificate.

  DANA stands for Dangerous And Not Airworthy.

  Damn. This was an accident that should’ve never happened in the first place.<br>Poor piloting, poor maintenance and an improper work culture at Dana Air. This shouldn’t have been able to happen at all.

  It will shock you to know that a DANA AIRLINE plane crash landed about two weeks ago in Lagos thankfully nobody was hurt. The minister for aviation in Nigeria has suspended their license till further notice. In a sane country Dana should have been out of business long long time ago

  To be considered the worst Airline ever when Adam Air once existed, is quite a distinction to achieve. Perhaps they should change their slogan to &apos;The Dumbest Way to Fly&apos;?

  The fact there’s an airline in Nigeria unironically called Value Jet is tempting fate.

  I am a nigerian and I was 11 years old when it happened, just got back from school. I still remember my mom running downstairs and telling us that a friend of her’s was on that plane. <br><br>Been waiting for YEARS to get someone to cover the crash properly, so thank you very much.

  My wife is Nigerian and she has long been a nervous flyer thanks to Nigeria&apos;s poor aviation safety record, especially this incident

  There’s a reason many Airlines from Asia and Africa aren’t allowed to fly to the US and Europe as &nbsp;FAA and EASA would not allow for them not have the minimum safety requirements , usually planes are too old as well , that’s the problem with poor countries , governments will turn the blind eye and let crooked companies operate .

  With the right engine &apos;?missing&apos; it almost makes me think Millennium techs found something that could potentially make the company liable in the accident and executives at the company had the engine &apos;disappeared&apos; to protect them...
