Though air transportation is seen as the fastest and safest of the three forms of transportation; Water, Land and air, but it is not short of its disasters.

Just as the two other forms of transportation have their own accidents, so does air transportation.

The Dana air crash on Sunday, June 3 will for long be in the memory of victim's family. 153 on-board passengers died in the air disaster while about 10 people reportedly died at the crash site.
