Taiwan, meant-mods if you can change please

Over the bridge whoa that is incredible. Looks so far like 23 dead.

Wow, that's a bad start to the day

It just looks so crazy, like something from a movie. Prayers to all the families....

 

[Phoenix]

The taxi driver must have been totally freaking out...

The taxi driver must have been totally freaking out...

I think the people on the plane were probably freaking out more..

Hate to see that & particularly the loss of life.

 

[Phoenix]

well yeah, would have sucked to be aboard the plane, for sure. But just driving your taxi along and suddenly a plane is hitting you...? Wow.

So apparently it might have been engine failure...I saw a clip on CNN during lunch that appeared to show the left propeller not spinning...or not spinning very much, it was hard to tell (muted TV at restaurant)

Live Feed here. Looks like they lost an engine and VMCed it.

"Sucked" is probably putting it mildly.

Stubbing your toe on the coffee table in the morning sucks. Being on a crashing plane is probably a few levels worse.
