Airline Puts Pilot in Dangerous Position—and It Results in Disaster

The Real Danger Came From the Airline

If British Airways didn't cut corners, flight 548 wouldn't have crashed. But, because they tried to save a few bucks by hiring a cheaper co-pilot, the plane crashed. This is a common example that unfortunately shows itself all over the world. If companies put more effort into ensuring the safety of their consumers instead of making the highest possible profit, accidents like this would never happen...

Facing Danger Head On

Ultimately, you are your own lifeline. It is your responsibility to keep yourself and others out of danger. By avoiding danger yourself, and being considerate of others, the world becomes a much safer place. Always listen to your flight attendant, and always be conscious of the risks you need to take to live on a daily basis.
