Talk:Controlled flight into terrain

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aren't the 11/09/01 plane hijacks and subsequent crashes into buildings technically CFITs ?

One of the planes did land in a field. —Signed, your friendly neighborhood MessedRocker. 11:26, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thunderbird Diamond Crash

According to the USAF Thunderbirds air demonstration team article, there was a crash of four of their planes following the malfunction of the lead pilot's controls; the three planes following him were paying attention to him and not to the ground coming up at them. Is this a notable enough instance to have a brief mention added to this article? --BlueNight 06:41, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I like the notability standard applied to the list of notable accidents and incidents on commercial aircraft. If the instance is notable enough to have its own dedicated article, not just a mention in USAF Thunderbirds' entry, then the crash could be included here. plmoknijb 22:32, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
