PAL accident investigation always using benefit of hindsight to the favor of mgt. & to be able to conveniently point a finger to the crew.
Ex. Guam incident.
Capt was demoted bec he made the mistake of attempting to land upon seeing the rwy but after they decided to do a missapp due to rwy not in sight.
But the flight already plowed thru the power lines way before this stage happened. The flt shld have not been dispatched bec facilities in the Agana airport were incomplete due to a recent typhoon.
In short the investigation was focused on looking at any possible mistake the crew commited. But the real cause of the incident was the flight was already exposed to danger before it even attempted the approach in Guam: when it was still in flight dispatch!!!
Kalbo should have resigned after this incident for his responsibility of giving a direct order to dispatch this flight.
Another aggravating fact was LT wanted this flt to proceed to Guam bec he wanted some political mileage in donating power generators after the typhoon to the gov't of Guam.
So how about this for CRM?
Now they will make the A320 pay for the plane?
What else is new?
