Is the tirade vs Cebu Pacific from Davao residents justified

Social and political criticisms

Philippines  June 6, 2013

Calls for boycott of Cebu Pacific Airlines (that included a pres of a religious run school in Davao), congressional inquiry (called for a former head of that unit),  and a class suit followed the missed landing of an Airbus 320 at the Davao International Airport.

The plane blocked the runway which caused its closure for other airplanes and causing more delays.

It is sad that such lack of logic and critical thinking take place and spurt of the moment pronouncement, albeit wrong, take place.

What happened?  The accident took place during a thunderstorm and now many are saying the pilots are overworked and that there is a mechanical error (what?)

And that Cebu Pacific is being pilloried because of the plane blocking the runway.  Who is supposed to have the towing and rescue equipment?   Isnt it supposed to be the airport management?

And who are talking?  Are they perfect, without sins in their own businesses or agencies so that they can cast the first stone.

What about the low fares and other good services done by Cebu Pacific before?

And the generous donation made to the school of the prelate running into hundreds of millions.  Bad PR for the school
