Only 5 days in to 2024 and we’re now up to 2 separate crashes
Aviation Incidents On January 5, 2024: Alaska 737 MAX 9 Exit, Silver Airways ATR, B-1, Other Crashes
2 ATRs just collided today, silly 2024.
Oh wait, there’s another one that took place yesterday, a Super Viking crashed, everyone onboard got killed.
Do you have any links?

Yep. Gonna be interesting, lol.
Just found another one for today, a PA-46 crashed, all 4 were killed.
There have been like, 12 crashes this year? More than 10 though for sure.
7 fatal ones if I can count correctly.
Tbh, what do you define as a crash anyways? Does an overrun count as a crash?
Quite recent, happened today like 3 hours ago, the plugged emergency exit blew out of an Alaska MAX 9 at around 15K feet.

What the f*ck?
Last year seemed mostly fine in terms of aviation incidents (the deadliest one was some unknown military crash in Africa) other than some near misses in the US. This year, though…

yeah there were quite a few near misses here in the US (I believe the trend is showing it’s on the rise over the last few years, don’t quote me on that)

Bad luck for Alaska lmao, first they make a very extremely hard landing, and now the plugged emergency exit blew out.

Today was quite interesting. 2 deadly plane crashes, an ATR ramming into the other one, and a plugged exit blowing out of a plane.
2024 moment.
