This mothers tears - and the tears of so many others who lost their loved ones in this incident - His justice will prevail in this world and the next. But the question that one should be asking is what was your contribution?

Any chance Gunja Air Plan will catch fire and they all will be history

جہاز انتظار میں ہیں کہ کب پوری فیملی ایک ساتھ سوار ہو، اور سواری سواروں کو لیکر اپنی منزل کو پہنچ جائے​

All ATR's should be shifted to some PAF base....where not a single PIA official be allowed to have any direct access. Than French team should be allowed to inspect the ATR's...i am 100% convinced that severe violations would be found in the maintenance and flight safety procedures.

French team is due tomorrow.

یوں دعا کریں کہ

‘ اور سواری سواروں کو لیکر "اوپر" پہنچ جائے‘​

[Inception-06]

Any chance of possible corporate sabotage?

These are second hand used planes, what did you expect ?

 

[Secret Service]

No matter how much money you put in or import a CEO from Germany, still PIA is most pathetic airliner in Pakistan.

The ATR is a very safe aircraft. I suspect bad service

ATR is a safe aircraft and that is why is 1500 of those are being flown worldwide. However, it is like a french lady. PIA could not meet the required requirements. Blame goes to all the political parties who are making sure that PIA remains in loss. Altogether a different topic of discussion.

Its half italian.

Well its a turboprop machine. You need special knowledge and must be careful in maintenance. The engines are more complex.

Is it clear when the engine catched fire? I read here during the starting sequence. My guess is a faulty fuel pipe or fuel pump. More fuel was injected than burned and accumulated which turned into a engine fire.

Didn´t another pakistani plane crash few days ago? I think they brought something like that i news.

ATR is flying all around the world. Its PIA and its technical department which does not parts for the aircraft and do the chaloo stuff in typical Pakistan style.

Its not just PIA, whole aviation industry in Pakistan is sub standard. The reason is simple. PIA is run a man handpicked by PM. Its regulator the CAA, is run by people who are cronies of the ruling thug.
