Because each driver is not responsible for 300 lives in their cars. That's why there is so much attention to plane crashes. It doesn't kill one person at a time

Right.. and this crash only killed 2 people. Perhaps one if the reports of the girl being hit by a rescue vehicle are believed; so what's your point? The real story is just how better aircraft safety has come over the years. This same accident years ago could very well have killed everyone aboard.
Just like the AF447 crash between Rio and Paris: Pilots incompetence at its best.
...and a week after this accident everyone was blaming the weird weather that happens at the equator for the crash. The point is that everyone is speculating, even you, that this this accident is the pilot's fault, but more often than not it's found to be a combination of mechanical failure and the pilot not being able to respond to it quickly enough -- which just so happens to be the official cause of AF447 crashing in 2009.

- deathcakes 13y agoIt certainly doesn't excuse your profound and distressing ignorance and belligerence. The facts are that you are not a pilot, were not there, have not received an official statement from the parties involved and are merely voicing an opinion based on what little information the mainstream press has been able to glean in the time since the accident. Air disaster investigations typically take a while. Most reach conclusions that are extremely non obvious, nor intuitive. I recommend, for the sake of my own sanity and the rest of the people you inflict your opinion on, that you read the following books: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Air-Disaster-Vol-Macarthur-Job/dp/1875671110 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Air-Disaster-Vol-Macarthur-Job/dp/18... http://www.amazon.co.uk/books/dp/1875671196 http://www.amazon.co.uk/books/dp/1875671196 There is a third volume available as well if you can stick it out, but perhaps you may gain some much needed perspective.
