Air Blue Black Box Recovered
A six member committee will be investigating the crash of the Air Blue Airbus flight ED-202. 152 people on board the Airbus A321 aircraft were killed when it slammed into a hill on July 28. The black box and cockpit voice recorder which was in the tail of the plane was recovered in the wooded Margalla hills after a three day search by twenty rescuers who had been hampered by heavy rain and inaccessibility. Major accidents are investigated jointly by the international aviation community; and the box appears to be in adequate condition, soon to be decoded in either France or Germany.
The box holds crucial details which will help determine the cause of the crash, and will be examined by international experts.
Pilot Pervez Iqbal Chaudhry was 61 years old, and suffering from diabetes and hypertension, and possibly suffering fatigue if he had observed prayers of the holy day preceding the crash.
President Lands Helicopter
What: Robinson R44
Where: near Cobquecura
When: Jan 23, 2010
Who: Sebastian Pinera President of Chile
Why: A recently released report by Radio Bio Bio said that Sebastian Pinera was flying a helicopter to his house, and a fuel supply problem forced him to land on the highway, that he was picked up by a police helicopter and flown to his house.
The President denies that report, and says instead that he stopped for fuel at a town near Cobquecura. The stop was not an emergency landing at all, that he was having lunch with a friend then heading to his Caburga home.
Hopefully Hiring Pilots Who Can
Aviation is looking alive in India, according to Bombay’s * Economic Times.
The corporation running Air India, National Aviation Company of India (NACIL), is hiring experienced Boeing 737 commanders, and for its Budget division (Air India Express), they are looking for experienced and inexperienced co-pilots.
In this depressed global economy, jobs are always good news. Let’s hope that NACIL’s hiring practices involve some efforts at due diligence (hiring with a certain standard of care) and result in aviation excellence, even in its budget airlines Air India Express.
Hiring is good news…as long as cutting cost in tough times does not mean cutting safety. Even travelers with modest incomes deserve to make it to their destination in one piece.
