Controlled flight into avolcano
"Controlled flight into terrain" is a term that refers to an airplane crash where a pilot accidentally directs an airplane right into the ground (or a hill, or the water, or anything else, really). CFITs tend to happen in bad weather, or when guidance equipment fails in a key way that isn't noticed by the people using that equipment to land or take off in a plane.Original Link: http://feeds.boingboing.net/~r/boingboing/iBag/~3/bwaf_L1gk0E/story01.htm
