WATCH: Plane skids off runway upon arrival, smashes to pieces on protective barrier
All 30 passengers, 4 crew members survived; only 2 people injured A small plane landing in Somalia drove off of the runway upon arrival and crashed into a fence, shattering into pieces upon impact. "There was no fatality from the accident except minor injuries," the Somali Civil Aviation Authority said in a brief statement. "The SCAA would like to reaffirm that the preliminary report will be released once the current investigation concludes." https://www.foxnews.com/world/watch-plan...ve-barrier We show less advertisements to registered users.

Planes are actually statistically safer but plane incidents tend to get a lot of media attention. The positive about train travel is you get a lot more space to travel in.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

That's why I always get a private room and sneak my own in........ LOL And, I'm never in any kind of a hurry anyway....... When I plan to go somewhere, I always leave plenty of cushion time........

The positive about train travel is you get a lot more space to travel in. Our trip to DC a few months ago, we got a roomette. The sleeper car is a great way to travel although the train bounces around a lot and it’s a little noisy so hard to sleep but not a bad experience.
