Five dead as Amazon cargo plane overshoots Miami runway
Another day, another reminder that shipping logistics is a dangerous game we usually ignore.
A Boeing 767 hauling cargo for Amazon ended up in a heap of smoke at Miami airport after it just... didn't stop in time. It barreled right off the end of the runway, leading to a tragic loss of five lives.
We are all so used to our packages showing up on the porch two days later that we forget there's a whole, high-stakes infrastructure of heavy metal and jet fuel operating in the background. The reality of high-speed global delivery is a lot grimmer than a cardboard box on a doorstep.
Hard to look at a Prime delivery the same way after realizing what it actually takes to keep those two-day shipping promises.
