People are rightfully concerned with all the plane crashes that have been making headlines recently. It makes me wonder how thin federal authorities are being stretched between all of these investigations. The victims and families affected deserve to know they’ll get answers, and they shouldn’t have to wait years. Hopefully there are dedicated investigators looking into all of this so there can be a prompt but thorough explanation.
