A lot of history involved in that blunder. I'd recommend googling Habbersham Airshow Air France / Airbus 320 demonstration.

You'll never want to set foot on an Airbus.

American's 767 that had an engine explode during a high power maintenance run at LAX. Good thing the mechanics were checking out the engine and it didn't happen on t/o. N330AA. Toast literally.

Checked out that airshow Surreal. Completely amazing that only 3 (I think?) died. Couldnt find anywhere why so many pax were on a plane for an airshow...
