I am an ex airport manager and used to fly single prop light aircraft. I am still interested in airline business and related subjects.

The Afriqyah-case interest me because of the fact that ultra-modern aircraft flies in an environment where technical / instrumental support from modern ILS sytems is missing and/or not working.

It looks like the Airbus is too sophisticated for use in African (conflicting) conditions. Unless flown by those who are die hard veterans.

I must say that I am still surprised that the Lybians could conclude a final issue in this bizarre accident.
