Story:
On May, 5th a report was made that a Russian Aeroflot flight caught on fire. It was also reported that 2 children died to this cause. This superjet 100 was flying from Moscow to Murmansk. During this flight, a fire broke out. The plane had to land back in Moscow. Trust me, the landing wasn't a soft one. When the plane landed, videos showed people fleeing from the plane as in engulfed in flames. The Russian President, Vladimir Putin ordered a "thorough investigation". I think Vladimir knows a thing or two about investigations. The Russian Invesigative Committee has launced a "criminal probe" on the incident. After 13 dead, 7 are also injured.

Questions:
1). If you were on this plane when this happened, what would be going through your head?
A: I have flown quite a bit. For this to happen would be pretty scary. I think that I would try my best to stay calm. Second I would try to help anybody. I think that everybody would also be scared.
2) Do you believe that this had anything to do with the planning of fire? (Do you think this was planned?)
A: I am not really sure. I don't that anybody could really "pull-off" a crime like this with today's security. I think that this was simply just a faulty plane. I think that they should maybe investigate more into the model of this plane to see if there are any other faulty ones.

Well done Mitchell!
It would be really scary and I don't know what to think because you hear about stuff like this happening and don't think it will ever happen to you. I'm not sure why someone would purposly set a plane on fire or want to hurt other people.
The first thing I would have done is try and find the nearest exit. After I had located the exit, I would try and do my best to help others around me and eventually flee the aircraft, saving whomever I could. I think that this accident was exactly that, an accident.
I would stay as calm as possible and then help out in anyway that I can. I don't think that this was planned in anyway. I believe that the fire was completely an accident.
I think I would start panicking and think im going to dies this is it theres no way out if this one
I dont think so problems can occur with these kind of things all the time with all the gas and oil in those things some bad is bound to happen eventually
Yes, I also think that I would probably panic and mabe be a little scared. I would try to get out of the plane as fast as possible. I also believe that this could have happened with any machinery.
I think that I would be frozen and freaking out. I can't even begin to imagine being in a plane that was engulfed in flames. I would be mortified. The first thing that would go through my head is this is not happening. Once it clicked, I would be thinking about how I was going to survive. I doubt that this fire was planned. I don't know of any motive(s) that would lead to a plan like this.
"I think Vladimir knows a thing or two about investigations". I applaud you on that, sir. I love how you just subtely slipped that in there. In all seriousness however, that is a terrible story to hear about and I'm glad that those that were able to get out got out. It really is a tragedy, and I would be terrified to be on that plane with nowhere to go but thousands of feet down.
I think this would be pretty scary too and I've flown quite a bit too. I don't like flying for a long time and I would imagine that I would hate it for even longer but hopefully not. I don't think this had to do anything with planning when this happened, but I would also try my best to stay calm.
Yes I think that this occurance would be scary, even if you have flown a lot! I also believe that this was just faulty and I do not think that there was any planning behind this.
