You know the article I wrote last week about the plane that went down in Spain last week? The one that killed around 150 people?

Ja, so anyway, that plane was a MD-82. It’s the ONLY model that 1 Time airlines use.

Good luck with that.

The MD-82 – 150 people dead

They go down the whole time. So much so that Justin S wrote in:

Hey Seth,

Saw you did an article on the plane crash in Madrid. Those goddamn MD-82s. Been a favourite of low cost airlines around the world, including our own (although I think Kulula may have stopped using them recently and it’s just 1time). I’ve never trusted them and refused to fly them. Rattletraps!

Every make and every model, even sub-model (Say Boeing 737-300) have a history and some of them are particularly prone to known failures and design weaknesses. It’s mostly the older ones, as the newer updated versions of those models have the design flaws fixed. And then all these shitbox planes endup at the low-cost airlines who don’t take care of sorting it out properly.

I’ve actually had my assistant re-arrange international flights completely because certain legs I noticed were flown on a plane that I did not agree with! I’m such a plane snob, hehe.

I agree. We should become plane snobs.

IT WILL ALL BE FINE WHEN WE WIN THE ONE BILLIONS RAND JACKPOT IN TODAY’S LOTTERY.

That’s when we can buy the BBJ and everything will be fine.

The Boeing Business Jet – much better!

Life is precious, people. Become a plane snob..
