Mr van Vollenhoven dit not react on Crew handling
Then why does the preliminary report of the Board which he presides
specifically state that "
Initially the crew did not react to the issues at hand" (end of Page 1, link to
English version of report)?
Only FDR data is analysed, CVR is not
BS.
Again, Page 1 of the Preliminary Report:
"The
voice recorder has shown that the crew were notified that the left radio altimeter was not working correctly (via the warning signal “landing gear must go down”). Provisional data indicates that this signal was not regarded to be a problem. [Emphasis Added]
All you read now in the press is speculations. (and rumour)
I am reading and quoting the
official, preliminary report.
You, on the other hand, are the one of the persons who provided (Turkish) press with your own little account of what
must have happened in the early hours after the event, even going as far as claiming that the crew crash landed the plane deliberately in that field ("
The place he landed was the only option for the pilot and he had to make this decision in a split-second.
The maneuver he made was topical jetfighter drill to reduce speed for impact. By this he maximized the chances for survival for the passengers, while knowing his own position would worsen. "!)
Excuse me?
