This is not the first 777 to crash on landing.
With three crash landings in 21 years with a total of three fatalities, you could do a lot worse.
The first crash landing was due to the Rolls Royce engine design, and the second was pilot error. We’ll see what this third one was from soon enough.
Of course there’s the mystery disappearance of flight MH17 and the one that got shot down...
An auto throttle failure in the UK and the Asiana crash at SFO. Hard to count the Asiana crash against Boeing. A day, 12 mile visual straight in, CAVU weather is something even Asiana’s pilots should be able to handle.
