Not another....

Just heard on my local news a few minutes ago another commercial airliner has went down....They said Peru which at first I thought of Peru, Indiana but its really country.  

Not much yet...Just happened about an hour ago.  2 dead and waiting on more... :-/

Has it just been reported on more recently, or has it really been a rash of bad luck in the skies??

I'm trying to give my mother-in-law encouragment about her first flight to the states.  This isn't helping.  :(

This is starting to seem sadly strange :( I have never heard reports of this many planes crashing in such a short period of time.

Theres a little more...Seems the death tole has gone from 2 to 60.

Its strange and I guess scary.  All in this month...5 commercial crashes with 4 being deadly.  I know private aircraft go down every day.  But I dont think I've ever heard of so many commercial crashes happening in such a short time frame :-/
