Sticking to the facts is the best strategy....

With as a purpose to reduce the amount of mumbojumbo being spread into the world here (I know, its a gossip forum but a forum which can potentially damage the airline by sending the wrong message out)

Capt Krunch is mostly correct on all he said...

A7-ACE

Suffered from a serious bleed problem, first bleed number one followed by number two.

Aircraft descended as per drift down procedure. O2 masks deployed.

Landed safely in KHG. Crew and passengers OK.

Tekstbook descent, decision making and handling of the failure. Thumbs up for the entire crew!

All in all a non-event in the end. Pax are all on the way now to their destinations. Handled by QR very professionally in terms of HOTAC etc.

Only people with worries now are AIRBUS, trying to solve the mystery!


Those are the facts....satisfied?
