The air crash in Washington the other day has once again brought to the fore the question how to make air journey foolproof. A recent research into the air crashes has established that machines seldom deceive pilots. It is the human error which has been found responsible for them. The pilots who hadn’t slept well before the flight or under the spell of alcohol are more prone to committing errors that cause air mishaps.
POSTSCRIPT:
A former American senator was given 11 years jail term the other day by an American court for accepting bribes from foreign governments in lieu of lobbying and facilitating heavy American investment in their countries.
This episode proves once again, if any proof was required as to how and why some political leaders of foreign countries want to be on the right side of American senators through their lobbies in the US which in turn then build their image in the corridors of power in the various echelon of government in America.
