They just got 3 737-800's in the last few days, 2 used (9Y-JMC, JMF) and 1 new one 9Y-SXM!

Not a good week for accidents, apart from the Asiana 747 there was a Morroccan AF C-130H (CNA-OQ) on the 26th that crashed 10km from Gouilimime with 80 fatalities, mostly military personnel.

They were raised as part of the after landing checklist.

I love how the article says a woman escaped the aeroplane and there was no one there to rescue her so she paid $20 for a cab to the terminal. Priceless!
