>Never did like Aeroflot. Thoughts to the poor people on board.

Years ago. friend flew 707s for PanAm. Was number two for landing, on about a 5 mile final at Moscow. Aeroflot TU154 was on one mile short final, when it stalled, dropped to ground, then huge fireball.

Not one word on tower frequency for :30, then just "Clipper 7, cleared to land."

Cold.
