Air Collision Video Footage!!


Last Saturday, a tourist Helicopter and a small jet collided in mid-air during the early hours of the afternoon. All nine people onboard both air vehicles were confirmed dead, including a number of them who were tourists from Italy. The footage of the crash was released yesterday. It's so unfortunate that such things should still be happening in 2009. What's been most annoying about the incident is how anytime a tragic incident occurs, the government begin to talk about enacting new laws that avoid the future occurrence of such incidence. Does it not sound stupid that all this while, there weren't strong traffic control systems that handle planes traveling in mid-air? I think it sounds really crazy. Now the Senate and all those involved want to begin to introduce new crazy laws. Reminds me of the attempted airline terrorist attack a few years ago where the terrorist intended to use liquid explosives to blow up planes. After that, the laws came in and till date, I have lost over three of my best colognes to freaking TSAs at the airport. I wonder the cosmetics that all these women have to let go because of such dumb rules. Doh!!!!...they've been caught once. It will take the dumbest terrorists to think about suck attack again in the next 30 years. Anyways, I forgot...we live in the United States of America where anything can happen. So I shouldn't be surprised. Back to air crash, the lesson learnt should be this: things like these really need to be avoided, not only when they occur, but should be pre-addressed before anyone loses their life. Now nine lives have sacrificed themselves before the freaking folks in charge can take note of the dangers involved in an absence of mid-air traffic control.
