All while the airlines are treated like Gods in the business first safety last Tombstone FAA But remember, the Diversity and Civil Rights staff keep right on expanding in the Failed Aviation Administration Rest easy. Safety is just a card game at the FAA NEW YORK — An American Airlines passenger died after a flight attendant told her he couldn't give her any oxygen and then tried to help her with faulty equipment, including an empty oxygen tank, a relative said. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,332189,00.html |

I must have missed the class where they said the FAA is responsible for inspecting the medical condition of passengers. |

I must have missed the class where they said the FAA is responsible for inspecting the medical condition of passengers. Oxygen tanks and required safety equipment on commercial airlines is the responsibility of FAA inspectors and the airlines. I was referring to required safety EQUIPMENT not medical diagnosis. American Airlines is claiming their equipment worked fine. Now the finger pointing begins. Every time someone dies on an aircraft the airlines blame the FAA and the FAA blames the airlines. All while people die. Sad state of affairs. |

Are saying the crewmember did not know how to operate the oxygen bottle? Have you ever flown on an airliner? -- *H. Allen Smith* WACO - We are all here, because we are not all there. |

All while people die. Sad state of affairs. Sadly, 02 prolly wouldn't have made a difference at all. On the surface ( veerrry surface) sounds like a pulmonary embolism. Folks predisposed gets 'em after long hours sitting. Which happens on airplanes, I understand. So... FAA causes PE.

There were also ten more to choose from. The doctor that treated the woman didn't use the oxygen, since she wasn't breathing enough to make a passive, unpressurized oxygen mask work. The article specifically says that both tanks were empty. What is your source? -- -Ed Falk, http://thespamdiaries.blogspot.com/ |
