You probably didn't hear much about this plane crash on your favorite TV news channel in the states, but here in Guyana it was big news. On Saturday, July 30 a Caribbean Airways Boeing 737, inbound from New York City - with 137 (or 145 or 163, depending on which paper was reporting the story) passengers aboard, overshot the runway at Cheddi Jagan Airport in a heavy rainstorm, crashed into a chain link fence and broke apart.
Thankfully, a miracle occurred when the seemingly insignificant chain link fence was able to slow the plane's trajectory just enough to prevent it from going over a 200-foot embankment . . . and, as a result, all passengers - no matter how many there were - walked away!It has been the subject of most conversations all week.

It was a miracle. Were there any missionaries on board?
