There was a similar thing about some other flight that went down a few years ago. I think if you look hard enough you can find 'coincidences' with lots of things.

My Mum was born on the 7th and it was her lucky number and my Nan always said my Mum was lucky because she was born on the 7th.  It was true, she won so many raffles and draws.  She was once told in her and my Dad's Social Club they would ban her for always winning...   She always picked a number with seven in it.

At least, every other strip in a book of raffle tickets has a seven in it

Yeah - it was typing in the flight numbers of the 9/11 planes and changing the font to Wingdings and it showed the twin towers etc.
That sort of thing trivialises tragic events in my opinion.  :(

Yes we all knew that and for some strange reason, she nearly always picked the winner. 

Kevin, the original post was trying to say the Number 7 was unlucky for some reason.  I was making a point that was rubbish.
It is strange how some people can be so rude for no reason.  However, I will be kind and try to understand that us polite people are in the majority.

Yes, I think I saw you once at the airport holding up the table tennis bats.   ;D  ;)

We're all sensitive about it Kevin, whether in the business or not, that wasn't my point.
