Fawad - I do actually understand this stuff, you know, I run a forum myself and have worked on this one (and have seen countless posts 'disappear' outside server back-ups). I take your word on the 'lost posts' on that forum. It is good to see some posters re-posting.

Judging by
Regarding why would a pilot fly into the Margalla hills...ofcourse that's the whole point of the investigation. While you could see the hills (from ground level), its possible the plane was in the clouds.
- I assume your knowledge on aviation and in particular on circling approaches is minimal?

I'm afraid also
Also he wasn't approaching RNWY 12 "again" but approaching RNWY 30.
does not make sense either.

Regarding your last para - I do hope so as, I'm sure, do the bereaved.
