Folly

Reuters report on the crash of the Russian plane in the Black Sea which was carrying a military choir from Moscow to Syria via Sochi --

The last big TU-154 crash was in 2010 when a Polish jet carrying then-president Lech Kaczynski and much of Poland's political elite crashed in western Russia killing everyone on board.

That doesn't mean that the plane itself is the problem, but it indicates that the plane plus the conditions -- environmental and human -- are a particularly bad mix.
