New Reports: Plane's instrument landing system was out of order

 

[Jango]

This most probably was down wind, coupled with possibly a engine fire (eye witness accounts).

Alhough the plane did come with huge force.

flights have been diverted from Isl Airport to lahore.

Manufacturer of the black box opens it up, not boeing.

Stop doing conspiracy theories.

We all know the level of the crash investigations here, the Air blue report was a 38 page farce. Have you ever seen a Accident report of 38 pages????



Well, BS sells !!!!
The geo guy said, had the aircraft been old, could the passengers have jumped in time before the crash? And i was like WTF.

i guess he hardly leaves news room ....

70 bodies have been recovered......

R.I.P

Is the debris field spread out? Considering eye witness accounts on "falling parts", "large ball of fire".. a bomb can also be not ruled out.

No sir,the debris is although scattered but nor on a very large area..
The plane exploded at very low altitude and before that a fire was observed...
If it had been a bomb explosion at high altitude the debris had been strewn across tens of kilometers...But here its hardly 1 Square Kilometers.

LOL....Hilarious man.

.

Accident reports are of hundred and thousands of pages, not 38.

Novels are much more than that.

Instrument based landing system is nothing essential...as Pilots are considered able enough to land the plane manually....
Although it depends what instruments were faulty....

Apart from that,it wasn't a crash landing,as the plane appears to have caught fire and then exploded just before reaching the airport...so faulty landing instruments are not a contributing factor.

I doubt it exploded.

No sound of explosion was heard.

And i agree, ILS or no ILS does not make much of a difference in this case.

What's purpose of this? What he will achieve from this?

investigations?
the debris will need to to be transported somewhere and examined.

So this is not state of the art.. and susceptible to such fallacies as lighting sparking off fuel.

After watching the eyewitness's statement it looks the cause of crash is a lighting strike. The electricity dis-chargers on wings and tail do help in most cases but what can't be controlled is the sudden shock wave created as a result of its impact.The unfortunate airliner was low on altitude, with little chances of recovery after the lighting strike.

May Allah bless all the departed souls. Amen!

Express news reported multiple eye witness accounts in which the saw a plane at low altitude on fir and reported falling plane parts...
it was raining very heavily..that mus have absorbed the explosion...
Although it may not have been a single big explosion...just a plane tearing itself apart...
