I find it hard to believe Clemente would of taken that flight if he had been told there was a great chance the plane was going to crash. Three previous flights had gotten through successfully, so there was no thought this one wasn't going to get through as well. Clemente only went on this flight to ensure the food supplies would get to the people and not the currupt government. Had the plane not crashed, and Clemente had lived, I doubt we would be talking about this mission at all, unlike Robinson who will be spoken about forever.
