Mfa Crash!!!

Well I guess it was only a matter of time before it happened....

The Piper suffered engine failure shortly after take-off from the Batu Berendam airport and Raj was forced to crash land behind a hawker centre close to the MBMB wholesale market here at about 9.15am
When will DCA do something about MFA or is Kokshaft STILL lining their pockets so they look the other way?

Wasn't there one eagle plane with engine / wiring problem before the piper crash? Just some minutes before?
Well done to the piper pilot.

Longlatif, that's a big accusation to make. Have you tried the ACA? Or do you think they're corrupt too?

Or are you one of those people who hide behind the computer using the Internet for self assurance.

Anyway, the student pilot did a good job. Well done. These are the times one's training becomes useful and he has been trained well.

Thumbs up

well, i agree with longlatif. the bastard kokshove was prolly waiting for it to crash so he could get some cash from the insurance, calling the plane a write off.

anyhoo.. at least now they've got some spare radios and stuff..

and yes, i also do agree that the student did a good job. must of been a nightmare. although, i wonder if he checked his t's and p's on take off, and stuff.

i also wonder if he managed to do the crash checks ie: the Red Silver Red Red checks hehehehe..

ah... the memories.

Tell me one government department in Malaysia that isn't?

Chrome at least I use my REAL name on this site.

The good thing about the truth is you don't NEED to hide it... It always comes out sooner or later...

CAV-NOT-OK you're right on the money! India will be used for parts...

Was the airplane involved a Piper Cadet PA28-161, registration 9M-SKI?

That would be sad. I did my First Solo flight on that airplane many years ago.

I remember practising the EFATOs ...."Academy #^ Fanstop!" followed by "Academy #% Climbing Away!".

Good on Raj!

the plane that crashed was 9M-SKI.

but alas, she has left us for that big junkyard in the sky

Too bad about "India". There weren't many planes those days - we had:

Kilo Alpha (lost on Gunung Pulai I believe)
Kilo Delta
Kilo Charlie (wrecked on WMKM - still sitting at the entrance to the Academy)
Kilo Echo
Kilo Foxtrot
Kilo Hotel
Kilo India
Kilo Golf
and Kilo Sierra Kilo

All to share amongst 70 odd trainees!

Brings back memories though when I saw the picture you posted. I know the photographer....."Hi Guys"
