The pilots are hero! God bless them souls
The pilots rescued many lives. Rest in peace
I cannot belive this!!! I thought turkish airlines was one of the best how can this happen!!! now i am scared
Turkish Airlines is one of the best airways in Europe, last year they went a member of the Star Alliance. It is expected that within 5 years THY will be in the top 5 airlines in the world.
BTW everybody, are we sure the Altimeter showed -8 feet or was it really minus 6 feet, as in a grave? What ever you do, don't read inbetween the lines of the news and think about it. And DON'T see movie Die Hard 2 where the terrorists set the altimeter to -200 feet to crash planes aproaching airport. Buffalo, London, Netherlands.......its all adding up to a cover up.
I think that the trust reversers from the plane are the major reason for this!
Thrust reversers are not deployed untill touch-down.
They did it but few hundreds feet above where no room to gain speed from an stall and survive
Pilots did not take action immediately
The early findings are interesting, but I'll wait until the final report comes out. In the meantime, AirSafe.com will gather information on the crash at http://turkish.airsafe.org.
