Today an indonesian military plane carrying more than 100 people crashed into a row of houses and burst into flames, killing at least 98...!here's the full news of the plane accident http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_indonesia_plane_crash
(Warning: NOT a referral link but the story and video)
it's so sad cos there's another plane crash happened again in indonesia and a lot of people died in the accident...93 people died and only 15 people who survive but with bad burns..deepest sympathy for all the victims and the victim's family...
the plane was nearly 30 years old...! i admit that indonesia always buy the second-hand transportations (bus, train, and even plane) from other country, cos of the economic situation, international debt, and now the recession...
hope that will be no more plane crashes again in the future...

Hello cieldz!!!
Now and then we hear the new of plane crash killing certain number of people. It is always bad to hear such things.
Yes, second hand planes may be the cause. The same is the problem with my country Nepal. I don't have detailed knowledge of the planes in our country here. But once I had heard that a wheel from the flying plane felt to the ground once from the flying plane. That was about 2 or 3 years ago. Well there may be number of such incident...
I pay my homage to all the deserted souls. May all the deserted soul rest in peace in heaven....
And yes, I too certainly pray that there are no such plane crashes in the future...

iam one of Indonesian people. as Indonesian,we are sad to hear that. it happened again. and kill many soldier and civil people. we wan`t to see it again. but we had to admit that the budget for Indonesian soldiers is not enough like budget in singapore and many country. we had to limited the budget for military because we had to fight poverty.
i think the soldier which killed because plane crash is hero, hero for his self,hero for his/her country,hero for his/her family.
and remember government try to fix it better immediately. i do believe to SBY because he is soldier too.

Yes, I read about this in the newspaper and felt very bad about it. Using old planes are not bad but they should have regular servicing done. Buying old planes maybe a good idea rather than dumping them and creating waste, but most countries don’t take proper care of such old planes and such accidents occur.
