Mr Nosy, that is a very interesting foot note you add, look at where they are operating. Those Asian pilots operate daily in what is likely the most demanding weather encountered anywhere in the world ! C/B/s are a daily event and if you can fly above FL 300 you are lucky. Remember the old Viscounts/Vanguards/Electras/748's that used to operate regularly inter-island in Indonesia. I take my hat off to all those flyers who every day fly into some of the worst wx on earth, and all for a few thousand Rupiah's a month. Before you start slanging those guys off for lack of fuel, let's all sit and wait, read the official report, and once more be glad they more or less got it all down in one piece !
