For what ever reason the title of the news stories are making you think it is a jet belonging to Amazon. Amazon has nothing to do with this crash, they have carrier contracts for their goods and one recently crashed. The media is pre testing the waters with their tag lines. Busher is correct in his warning.

Here is the operator:

The Boeing 767 operated by Atlas Air was a scheduled cargo flight for Amazon from Miami to Houston on Saturday when it nosedived into a swampy area about 30 miles from George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

And they use the tag line Prime Air.

Any info about the Amazon crash? They are surely keeping that one under wraps.

They’re not keeping it under wraps.    It just doesn’t cause as much hysteria as a manufactured crisis with the 737 Max does.

That one isn’t creating the required level of hysteria.

Of course... only the pilots died.

There's a preliminary NTSB report.

It's still early to expect a complete report.  Odd that they were at full thrust for the crash.

As I noted  before, could be an Aloha Snack bar demo and someone at the NTSB let it slip so they walked it back.

Plus you can't squeeze Boeing  for money off a twenty-plus year old 767 but with hundreds of Max orders these  people can wrangle some concessions.    It's a money game.

It's so painfully obvious it was all about money. Even in my industry we hold our manufactures accountable.

Well damn  :rolleyes: Now youtube has all the answers, how could we have not known that this level of knowledge was out there?

Do us all a favor Ace; book yourself a few flights on Air Koryo and if you survive, give us a write up on the one level of safety that exists in the world's airlines.

Oh and by the way, lets not forget to throw out due process all together. Then we can let the press and other experts like you determine what really happened in all the world's tragedies.

VOX puts the simple in simplistic.  The narrative is private corporations are evil and profit is bad. The poor pilots were exploited because of greed. Same old propaganda but the kids think it's all new.

You were right.

I was wrong. There are WAY more people out there that reason like a 12 year old than I ever imagined.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
