Another Crash - 27 April 2012
Auntie Susi Pudjiastuti and Christian von Strombeck just seen on Indonesian TV (SCTV, a bit biased but not so much as Metro, owner Surya Paloh, who is friends with Susi) reporting the loss of a Pilatus Porter with pilot Willis and pax Rosel, both fatalities. What nerve! Susi says she's grounding all 7 Porters but says nothing about the likelihood that bad maintenance on the fuel delivery system affects all aircraft potentially. So what do we see over Nusawiru, Cilulang this very day? A C208 Caravan circling low over the city as if nothing is wrong.
Two crashes ago, Susi grounded the fleet. Financial priorities have overtaken safety evidently. PK-VVQ was last checked at Nusawiru before staging back to Kalimantan where it crashed. This maintenance center is well-known, as is the illegal strip in Pangandaran built by egomaniac Susi for her own use, for sloppy maintenance. Witness the case last year of a screwdriver and spanner left under the cowl of a C208 by a careless mechanic. Send em to Boundary Bay if you want the PT-6's maintained, Susi, or just train using the Mechtronix simulator. No one wants a Van coming down their chimney in Cijulang!
Susi Air berani menerbangkan Caravan diatas kota Cijulang, Ciamis dalam rangka circuit training menyusul kecelakaan pesawat Pilatus PK-VVQ di Kalimantan baru ini. Gila banget! Dan jelas. tidak bertanggungjawab.
