Riccardo - in all respect: the aircraft that landed on the road at FYWH was operated by BayAir and there was nobody from CemAir on the aircraft. CemAir had leased their aircraft to BayAir. So therefor BayAir is responsible to train their crew in this case. Maintenance was done on the aircraft by Aviation Center in Windhoek, so if there were snags (and by the way these do occur sometimes on any aircraft flying) these would have been in the Hands of that AMO during the lease. What guys are doing here, is blaming CemAir for an aircraft going down, just because it happens to belong to them and forget everybody else in the chain.

The aircraft that went down in Sudan was also Cemair's, however it was also dry leases and operated by foreign crew. If fuel contamination or sabotage was the cause, how can it be CemAir's fault ?

The accident that this thread is about, is the first unfortunate accident that involved CemAir's own crew and it happend to be one of their most experienced senior captains and copilots. The reasons for this are unknown at this time.
