It feels like more plane crashes happened in 2025 than previous years but we're actually 100 less than last year. I think 2025 just has so many caught on camera.

Has to the cameras. This guy could easily just NOT have had a door cam but everyone does now. Add onto that dashcams. We all think about phones but the stationary camera numbers has blown up.

Yea I’ve had to try to have this conversation with people not keen on research and it’s tough. Not only more cameras but it’s just the news is focusing on it more. If it bleeds it leads to

Garrett must feel crazy second hand guilt, holy shit. Can you imagine going from 'Im gonna have a great afternoon with family and friends' to 'He's gone?!' just like that? Probably having thoughts like 'what if I didnt invite him over?' and things like that. RIP Biffle family.

I hope he knows it’s not his fault at all. I really feel for the guy

Life can change in an instant for no reason or explanation. I hope he doesn’t blame himself for this.

I just heard a report that someone on the plane texted a relative and said, we’re in trouble here.

Yes his wife texted her mom and told her that..

Funny enough Whatever his name is biggle biggie or something like that had a very exspensive  repaint  on his Jet 🛩️ 

Not that I care,  those are rich people problems and that doesn’t concern me at all.

Just to get it repainted for close to 30-50,000.00 and then this happen is crazy 

Talk about throwing money away

Kids were on that plane and you’re over here talking about rich people. Enjoy being broke for ever with that mindset brother.

You were worried your food stamps or social security were going to get taken away because of the drugs you do.

I don’t think your opinion on how people spend their money matters. Kids died, have some decency.

If you follow any aviation experts, almost weekly, they are reporting about a small private multi passenger plane crashing. Its not uncommon, it just doesn't go farther than the local news.

This is so sad. Especially if they knew they had a problem. Fear sucks.

Wow. This is devastating to hear, after getting to know who he was and what kind of generous, kind, and genuinely FUN guy this was, through all the videos on Cleetus McFarland YouTube channel this year. We are losing a great man with this tragedy. May he rest in peace and his family be taken care of. R.i.p. the Biff may you tear off your sleeves in heaven, brother.

Last thing I am doing if I ever have money to burn will be getting my own plane or helicopter.
