It's coming to light that passengers delayed their evacuation of that burning American Airlines jet so they could retrieve their carry-on luggage Passengers are supposed to be able to successfully evacuate an aircraft in around 90 seconds; but, if even just some stop to retrieve carry-ons, this time frame can extend up to several minutes, endangering all passengers.

And that also goes for handheld devices. If your smartphone is in your hand and not your pocket - drop-it!

The DC crash witth the Blackhawk copter has been found to be the error of the military helicopter. She failed to heed the tower's warning, apparently she or her trainer "stepped on" the tower's message and may not have heard it at all. That simple error cost 67 lives. So sad that.

At the cost of 67 lives, military operations around the busy skies of Washington DC have been changed. Years of close calls weren't enough.
