Been watching Death Note, it's good! I really like L, I saw the footage at the beginning of the video, woah, he looked totally different from L. Must be a really good actor.
Another thing I have been looking, it's my mum's air crash transcript. Here's some infos:
26 September 1997 - Garuda 152
Flight GA152 (Jakarta-Medan) was cleared for an ILS approach to Medan runway 05 and was flying on a 316deg heading on Airway 585/W12. Having descended to 3000ft the crew were instructed to turn left heading 240deg for vectoring to intercept the runway 05 ILS. At 13.28 the flight was instructed to continue on a 215deg heading and descend to 2000ft. At 13.30h ATC directed the flight to turn right heading 046 and report when establishing the localizer. Confusion the part of the air traffic controller followed over whether GA152 was turning left or right. Just 10 seconds after confirming the right turn, the Airbus crashed in a wooded area, broke up and burst into flames. The wreckage covered a 150x75m area near the village of Pancur Batu, which is located at 900-1000m amsl. The accident happened 30kms short of Medan Airport. The region was affected by smog from forest fires; visibility was reported to be 600-800m.

MEDAN: Turning right sir.
GIA 152: Roger, 152.
MEDAN: 152, confirm you're making turning left now?
GIA 152: We are turning right now.
MEDAN: 152 OK, you continue turning left now.
GIA 152: A ...... confirm turning left? We are starting turning right now.
MEDAN: OK ...... OK.
MEDAN: GIA 152 continue turn right heading 015.
GIA 152: Aaaaaa. Allahu-Akbar.
As you can see, the tower said a wrong thing to GA152.
MEDAN: Merpati 152, you turn left heading 240 vectoring for intercept ILS Runway 05 from right side. Traffic now rolling.
MEDAN: GIA 152 do you read?
GIA 152: GIA 152, say again?
MEDAN: Turn left heading a ...... 240, 235. Now vectoring for intercept ILS Runway 05.
It was for Merpati, but then asking for the confirmation, instead of asking Merpati, they asked Garuda.
MEDAN: GIA 152, turn right heading 046, report established on localizer.
GIA 152: Turn right heading 040, GIA 152, check established.
MEDAN: Turning right sir.
GIA 152: Roger, 152.
Don't know what's happening here, but they were asked to turn "right" now.
MEDAN: 152, confirm you're making turning left now?
GIA 152: We are turning right now.
MEDAN: 152 OK, you continue turning left now.
GIA 152: A ...... confirm turning left? We are starting turning right now.
And then they were asked to turn left, right after that. GIA152 responded saying, "we are turning right now." I am pretty sure, due to poor English, it was misunderstood. You see how it could mean, we are turning "right," now. Or it could mean, we are turning "right now."
Oh well, I don't 100% understand what was happening but yeah that's what I saw.
According to www.planecrashinfo.com, that air crash is one of the worst 100 crash in the world up to today, ranking 18th worst. Not a really good thing to be in a high rank for. The worst was the 9/11 incident.
Airbus A300
That's the plane model. Don't you think it looks sooooo old! Man, 10 years ago is a long long time ago!
