Abeg tell me something else, even in low visibility the pilot ought to have known when the plane is descending or ascending. How can you tell me my blind uncle won't know when he's falling from the sky?? Motion necessarily don't need sight to affirm.

Is he a baby pilot? Suicide mission on point.

Sometimes you guys talk without reasoning. Do you know how many flight hours the pilot had ever since he started flying?

I had watched a plane crash as a result of wrong information and data given by the plane and a delay in the control tower's word.

A plane was 15,000 Ft actually, but the data seen on the screen was 5,000 Ft, the pilots thought they were at the right Ft , but the non driving pilot and the captain estimated that those data were wrong and an emergency landing was declared.

Sometimes, it could not have been the pilot's fault but the wrong data, weather condition, head wind, updrift and down drift... etc and also not suicide.


The blackbox should be obtaind and proper observations should be taken. the FDR, should be enough.



Even if the best pilot in the world were flying a plane with a recked elevator stabiliser, to land the plane would be nearly impossible ... and when it happens, na people like you go shout "suicide"

Machine fails. Some cars engine fail while in the high way, generator engine knocks, so do planes.

Make dem allow the man rest in peace and stop their useless investigation.

Pilot reported a foggy weather which resulted to the crash.

This case the pilot is actually to fault , he should never have taken off in that kind of weather in a chopper not equipped with the right equipment for such blind flying
yeah bro but mother nature does not tell you what's it's planning especially on long haul flights, not he didn't crash at a home base. Somone cleared him for that flight and he must have been briefed.
Even the best get unforseen scenarios

Nawa o. Pilot previously disciplined because of weather violations, he wasn't licensed to fly in poor visibility, now news of him erroneously reporting he was climbing while he was descending.

How did Kobe put his and his daughter's lives in the hands of this quack?
that pilot maybe into weed smoking

While your mates in saner climes are painstakingly putting up series of research modules and implementation strategy to ensure such tragic event don't reoccur in the aviation industry.

Young man, life isn't entirely about all the vain things you mentioned in your comment.. Those can come as some sort of relaxation package after you have graciously excelled in your chosen career field that benefits mankind in someway.

I hope this short note of mine helps in putting your priorities in life in check.

Cheers.

your instrument eating really comes to play in landing, and not in thick fog over mountains... With terrain proximity warning system confused... Mother nature is to be blamed bro.....

Are you an aviation enthusiast?, If you ate, you should know that spatial disrientation comes to play if you are a pilot and looking ousideo helps but not in this case with thick fog... Let me explain, do you know that you can walk in a plane while the pilot is undergoing a 30degree bank without knowing it?... Because you wontw fall.. or if a plane is crashing and falling out of the skies, that somonso who doesn't know what's going on can actually be walking and laughing because unlike the movie's tell us, things don't fall over?... I blame fog... It'll suprise you that fog and birds are a pilot worst nightmare and not even engine failures

Spatial orientation of human beings is a complex function of which sight is the main driver. Once physical view of the horizon is lost (as in fog), you lose orientation without knowing. Just as you rightly stated, you can even be flying upside down and not know it.

See eh! There is nothing anyone will tell me. That pilot was high on something strong. I mean even though you close your eyes while you are in a car, you are able to tell when the car turns left and right. How much more a helicopter? I no believe the gist.
Re: Kobe Bryant's Pilot Thought He Was Climbing While Descending - NTSB Report by iamjavadem(m): 3:46pm On Jun 18, 2020
Its obvious you have never flown on anything before. Pilots get disoriented and crash aircraft, its a common thing.

It was supposed to be a 15 minute flight and he was advised about the bad weather
Re: Kobe Bryant's Pilot Thought He Was Climbing While Descending - NTSB Report by Jakumo(m): 4:01pm On Jun 18, 2020
This report is utterly baffling. When visibility drops below acceptable limits for VFR (Visual Fight Rules) flight, the pilot automatically shifts attention to the instrument panel to proceed with IFR (Instrument Fight Rules), whereby all flight parameters are derived from instruments, with NO need to look outside while visibility is low.

A quick glance at the instrument panel VSI ( Vertical Speed Indicator) would have told any competent pilot whether the craft is climbing or descending, and the rate of ascent or descent in feet per second. The ADI ( Attitude Display Indicator, or Artificial Horizon) would further define the spatial orientation of the helicopter, expressed in degrees of axial roll, nose up, or nose down, all of which can be discerned at a glance.

For a pilot to become disoriented at all, the flight instruments might have been distrusted by the pilot, or were in fact defective due to power failure or some other fault. If all instruments in the flight deck are operating normally, there is NO excuse for any competent pilot to fly into the ground while blinded by fog or cloud cover.

Moving into the realm of speculation, a sudden down-draft of high wind, could destabilize a helicopter sufficiently to distract the pilots from their instruments for just long enough to lose orientation and hit the ground.

to be honest...
i feel machines are more credible than most human services
i know humans make the machines
but i believe the humans filters of most of the flaws and potential errors
compared to the vigorous months and years of pilot training
an auto-pilot engine would have done a much better job in this particular situation

Machines vs Man
Machines are better. Man takes almost a 100% precision to design machines but do not command the same precision at work.
Machines designed for a particular job does it better the man who designed it.

have you driven anything in a fog before?,... I guess no.
In that situation, you don't know if you're descending or ascending.
You won't be able to know if you're returning to where you are coming from, so don't discredit what you have no knowledge about cos you studied the tip of science in your secondary school days undecided

Ah nice!

Did you read Firefox, the very small adapted version or the bigger novel?

Lemme Google the cover. I read the small one as a teen. I bought the bigger one but i haven't had the time to read it, I hope it would be worth my time. It is somewhere on my shelf.
