Dear Fellow pilots

I got some fresh news which i'd like to share with you :
Capt.Dad_Ras ( peace with him ) the PIC of 727 who had over 9250 HRS & with many type ratings on his back of his licence & on type experience such as : Fokker100 / 747-100 / 727 which most of his experience was on 727 ( almost 4000 HRS ) , & his F/O who had almost 1000 HRS on this type .
despite bad weather which caused almost 2 HRS delay for departure,finally he decided to fly in bad weather ( low viz & heavy snowing ) , the flight took normally 55 mins or 1 hr max , ..we all know about the metar .
so , he tried ILS 21 , descented to DA/H but couldn't see the visual refrences , so he decided to make missed approach & said to tower , 'm gonna make another try & if i can't with , second try i'll be back to alternate a/p which was the tehran & tower controller replied back as u prefer ...
& he followed the missed app procedure , he climbed to some 7200/7300 FT AGL & followed intercept R-150 , (since all iranian accidents recently happenes , the GOV point the poor pilot while he's dead & pour all those blames on him , he was very aware of the situation even at that moment ) while both engines #1 & #3 failed all of the sudden , he pressed the button & said to tower : mayday have 2 engines failure but , my anti ice is ON , so he knew after that , might be said : he didn't turn on the anti ice , so he got eng flamed out . he tried to control the A/C but only with one eng .....he could saved only 25 lifes .
the idea of : had no fuel at time a/c impacted to ground was vanished , basically bcoz no trace of burnin' obssessed me but once i heard he declared if we can not land durin' his second attempt we'll back to tehran again , & his FE was one of the most experienced person in iran .
so , it was only & only technical problem in his engs ....
God bless them all , .....
