Seatac Crash Thread

Sun Aug 12, 2018 12:40 am

Hello mods and a.net pals,

Just on the Seatac crash I wonder if it might be a good idea to pin something to the thread to help direct people to crisis support and suicide prevention services in various countries?
It's certainly what health professionals recommend here in Australia when reporting on a tragedy such as this, as a lot of detail about a suicide can often lead vulnerable people to think dangerously about themselves.

The thread is a credit to the community and is restrained, and I know people are inquisitive. Just thought it might be something to consider....

That could be a good idea. It's just sad nobody was able to help the guy.

I would like to add to that to be aware of delayed shock to an event like this, particularly to also where this one seemed more personalised to the event with ATC transmission etc. Delayed means days or even weeks. Recognising symptoms and understanding them can go a long way prior to seeking any help in the first instance.

I agree with RetroRoo’s comments about the thread, and in particular Revelation’s recent contribution/s I have found to be very informative and valuable.

Thank you.
