What this country needs is another public trauma centre located on a different part of the island. Many accidents or emergencies are funneled to PMH and they don't have the space or the staff to handle it.

A trauma centre located elsewhere would alleviated some of the burden currently placed on PMH. Furthermore having a few of the local clinics opened 24hrs to deal with minor accidents and emergencies may also assist.

A 12hr wait time in an ER is ridiculous and shouldn't even be allowed to occur. But what do I know, I haven't been to PMH since I was born in the eighties. Lol

Your assumption is an assumption and not fact, so therefore fact is you're an ASS for making it.

Unless you were on the plane and know exactly what happened you know nothing.

What's stupid is a motorist in a school zone not paying attention. Fact is pedestrians and motorists in The Bahamas don't know how to use the road.

Pedestrians crossing when and where ever they feel like with no indications, and to top it off sauntering like they own the road and daring anyone to hit them.

Motorist don't even recognize pedestrian crossings and you'd stand there all day for someone to let you cross. I've witness it myself....

Fact is on both ends Bahamians have a blatant disregard for road safety.

So I'm guessing you've had a chance to review the flight log, to see maintenance records on the plane, to examine the engines, and of course to speak to the pilot and ascertain his state of mind.

If you've done these things then you can emphatically state the cause of the crash, and since I know for fact you haven't, shut the hell up.

Making assumptions and accusations and you know nothing.

This is a perfect example of entitlement mentality, because he was born here he feels citizenship is his right.

The law clearly states that an application must be made at 18 yrs of age. So for 17 years this man did nothing...he deserves to stay in Haiti. I'd make him get a Haitian passport and then maybe seek to apply for resident status.

Goes to show how many of them disrespect the law of the land and then want to cry foul when it catches up to them. I don't feel sorry, hope they have him in the shittiest hole in Haiti.

Let this be a lesson... I am sure it doesn't take 17yrs to get straight if you have proof that you were born here. 17yrs...how many times the government changed in 17yrs, how many immigration reform exercises have been carried out and this dude isn't straight.

Gtfoh....he was operating under slackness and got caught.

It's always easier to have 20/20 vision when you are on the other side of the table. That's what I dislike about this country, the fact that everything must be politicized.

Six people lost their lives in an accident that may or may not have been preventable, but rather than come together and formulate a plan to prevent this from recurring people are pointing fingers.

And pointing fingers without having full knowledge of the situation, considering the plane was not fully recovered.

Truth be told the focus needs to be on how is this prevented in the future. What is needed to ensure crashes like this are prevented?

Seeing as the plane was not fully recovered, most crucial being the engines one can not fully determine if the crash was solely the pilots fault. Not negating the fact that he should have been properly licensed, but how does one place sole blame on the pilot without first examining all the evidence.

For all we may know the plane ran out of fuel, it was indicated he attempted to circle around several times before crashing. It was also speculated that he was turned around after having already arrived to Nassau.

Also he might have been caught in wind shear due to the weather, something that no amount of experience can prevent you from encountering (unless the airport has the required equipment that detects wind shear, and Andros doesn't).

Furthermore, even though it is said he wasn't licenced to fly commercially doesn't mean he wasn't qualified. It just indicates he didn't have the necessary documents. How many people know how to drive but don't own a license. Yes, I am aware the rules and regulations require proper licencing, but we don't know what he was capable of.

So tossing blame solely on the pilot is just a blame game because they have no one else to blame. And frankly it's in poor taste because he's not here to defend himself.

At the end of the day the ultimate blame rests with the government agencies that don't regulate air travel between the family islands.

So now that we have a tragic accident people want to point fingers and blame the pilot.

No, blame the government- plp or fnm they are both to blame. Stop the slackness that's so prevalent in this country.

Whether jitney drivers or unlicensed pilots it boils down the the same thing slackness that needs to be regulated.
