"Turkish Airlines pilots Schiphol crash not to blame"

'Piloten Turkish Airlines hebben geen schuld' | nu.nl/binnenland | Het laatste nieuws het eerst op nu.nl

Pilots of last year's crash have very little to be blamed for is a conclusion of the Dutch air accident investigation board according to the press article enclosed.

The main blame lies with the plane manufacturer following the inop altitude indicator which was steering the autopilot.

Dutch ATC is also (but to a lesser extent) being blamed for making the aircraft turn to sharply on final approach.

The final report will not be published before February 25, the date of the accident a year ago
