TransAsia Plane Hits Bridge

Posted by 5sam on February 5, 2015 at 9:41am

On February 4 in Taipei Taiwan an TransAsia flight lost power to one of its motors and crashed into a bridge then landing into a river.  13 people are confirmed dead and dozens are still missing. the plane was carrying 58 passengers and 28 are injured. A dash cam captures the whole thing on tap, a couple minutes before they went down the flight captin radio'ed the flight tower and told them that they were having engine trouble and they need to make a emergency landing. No one knows yet what the main cause of the engine failure yet but the search continues for the lost people and may be more survivors

If your plane went down what would be going trough your mind and how would you react to it.

if your plane went under water how would you get people to safty and keep them above the water.

    Its not scary to fly in a plane but if it was coming down for an emergency landing I would be terrified and so scared I would die. I would try to get people out as quickly as possible and swim as fast to the surface as possible.

    I would probably be freaking out and screaming my head off! I would help people onto things that can float and keep them alive.

    If my plane was going down and about to crash i would be freaking out probably crying with a pillow in my face not watching everyone because it would be terrifying. If the plane went under and i was still alive i would try and find my family and try to out them out with me to safety.

    either i m going to die or the pilots will try to land the plane safely 

    they have life jackets on the plane. Its mandatory that they have life jackets and pfd's on the planes

    I would be scared and I would be thinking about the people I may not see again and the opportunities I will miss. To get people out I would quickly find the exit door and work to it.

    If my plane was going to crash I would be terrified. I would try to see if there is something near by to help and just try to stay calm.

    If my plane was going to crash I would just try to get to the back of the plane and try not to get killed. I would try to find something that floated and get people to it as quick as i could.
