Its very sad. Its was a series of very unlikely events that lead to that accident. But ultimately the blame goes on the KLM pilots for taking off even though they didn't have clearance and so they crashed into the other plane. 


There was a terrorist attack on the Gran Canaria airport, which forced a plane to go land on the Tenerife airport. That's the real reason there were a plane taking off and a plane trying to land under extreme weather conditions. Yes, bad decision by the guy who took off, but still. Communications were bad that day too.
