The shocking accident at the Dubai Air Show has left many people deeply unsettled. The accident is made all the more tragic because the pilot lost his life. An inquiry has been launched to find out exactly what went wrong.
For the public watching, this is not just a technical mishap. Rather, it feels like a painful reminder that even the most advanced national projects are fragile and that the cost of ambition can sometimes be tragically high.
