gambia: 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. |

SarkinYarki: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 |

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. Slawormir: |

Abasman007: 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. |

Its obvious you have never flown on anything before. Pilots get disoriented and crash aircraft, its a common thing. bro4u: |

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. 1 Like |

bro4u: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 |
