Missing 1900
Hi Solid Rust Twotter,
I realy do not believe what the first investigitor quoted in his report. It is impossible to get a sample of the wreck, as the Congo wont let me visit this area, apparently it is a war stricken areas.
I do however believe that it was not a pilot error, as these two pilots, one being my son knew this area and were very responisble people. Something went wrong and I am trying to find out what? My son mentioned on facebook that thet are struggeling with the one engine.
The remarks of the pilots being in-experience or taking chances is not whortwile reading. All I can say is that whoever makes these remarks must be glad that it was not them in the cockpit. As mentioned, I spend approximately 150 hours in the cockpits of some of the aircraft with my son.
Something went wrong and it is not easy to find out. I had some correspondance from one of the pilots that flew with my son in the DRC stating that the Voice Cocpit Recorder was removed as it was faulty and that the black box revealed very little information. Just show you that somebody got this information, but it seems impossible for me to get it.
Regards,
Johan
