Tragic August
A friend of mine told me last week that she has always felt August as a tragic month for commercial aviation. This month we have had accidents on Greece, Venezuela and, yesterday, in Peru. This last plane had just taken off from the airport when it crashed 20 miles from Pucallpa, into the jungle. The pilot tried to make an emergency landing without its landing gear on a road near the jungle airport in heavy rain storms.
It feels as a sad month indeed. My deepest condolences to those who had relatives on any of those flights. May their souls rest in peace.

Really terrible. I always believed that August is the "darkest" month of the year. May God rest the souls of those people died in the recent crashes.
