According to airliners.net there is a rumour that a germanwings plane has crashed.
Can anyone shed any light on this?

Shouldn’t this post be deleted too if the event didn’t happen? Not a nice thread title to have lying around if it’s not true.

I think (Hope) he was being sarcastic!!!

If you want an idea of some of the t**ts on a.net, just look at the 1st reply to this trip report. Poor guy, its a great report with great pictures and he gets a reply like that?

I can find no trace of it on A.net
Possibly been deleted, it was there when I checked.

Who would circulate something like that? I can find no
trace BTW…
Seeing that the source is apparently A.net, it will be some opinionated little prick who hates Germanwings are Lufthansa. There are plenty of that type hanging around A.net forums like a bad smell.
There are people there that class Airbus aircraft as unsafe, crap, inefficient… purely based on the legroom they had on one flight.
Others class the Boieng 757 as unsafe, inefficient and unappealing, simply because the Airbus A320 has winglets and the 757 doesn’t.
Thats the standard “Quality” of posters at A.net. Hence why I regard anything on those forums written diarrhea

more than likely is a rumour

Hopefully not true, but if it’s on a.net then it’s probably just another rumour.

More than likely as a LCC if a German wings plane did crash that would be the end of that airline because people would think as a LCC they arnt safe,Id imagine that if any LCC in Europe had a crash it would be a major low to all LCCs in Europe.

And you think that if one of their fleet has crashed your flight is more likely to aswell?
Did i say that!?? NO! Wot i was saying was it would be weird if they did crash before i flew with them, cos there was a Bomb in Cologne last week and thats where i’m going with them!

Thanks

I think there forum is utter pants, you get the same people just moaning about the same things, only reason I go on it is for the pics.
This site is much more civilised and more fun.
And you have to pay for the crap they post!
As everyone has said, looks like another silly rumour, they shouldn’t do it about serious subjects such as this.
By: Bmused55 - 15th June 2004 at 15:09
Hope not, i’m flying with them next month!

I don’t know. It seems to happen all the time on A.net. “My brother’s girlfriend’s dog’s cat’s goldfish told me so it must be true!” is the way lots of threads there go.
By: ZB057 - 15th June 2004 at 13:26
whats the point in doing that?
By: Bmused55 - 15th June 2004 at 13:24
Looks like the usual A.net factless rumours
yup.

If it’s not on any news sites in the next half hour we can assume nothing happened at all.

Nothing at all from my sources
