Interesting They would have noticed the consoles / lights/ air con weren’t working as soon as they were settled ( about 20 minutes before taking off ) ?? One dodgy tv console is expected but not them all Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
the tv not working is not unusual. The flaps not working is an entirely different matter, and it really doesn't matter if it was a system failure or not, it was pilot negligence to take off with the flaps in the wrong position. There is a copilot for a reason, to make sure . that all the safety checks are completed before take off and flaps in the correct position is a major safety check

I don’t think i would have left two young daughters at such a time .. to scatter the wife’s ashes . Live in the moment … for the future ! If he had prioritised the poor children they would be living long happy life rather than than this unnecessary living nightmare . He could have sent the ashes over with strict instructions or even sent them over with a friend or family member and saved an absolute fortune as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

…he fulfilled a dying wish of his partner…that’s something I would have wanted to and only have done myself also…it’s not something that I would have ever entrusted to someone else to do…

I see the conspiracy theorists have started already, the survivor threw himself into the the crash for compo :facepalm:
When someone pointed out he was actually booked on the flight.....he missed the plane and then threw himself into the fireball Apparently he managed to transport himself from the airport to the crash site as he knew the plane was going to crash :facepalm: |

Your wife, who is dying of cancer, asks for you to scatter her ashes in her home country. You’re going tell her you won’t do it, and actually won’t do it? |

…it’s now being looked at as possible duel engine failure with some new video footage that’s being studied atm…
|
dual engine failure makes not much sense, at takeoff, a plane can only takeoff at V1
also the footage, to me this came across more like a stall, not engine failure, i also saw no flames the landing gear should've been up, but it remained down, the landing gear caused the drag, especially with the flaps in the fully retracted position, that caused it to stall, but the question is why would an experienced captain and a well trained first officer not have noticed the landing gear still being down, and the flaps in the fully retracted position? |
the investigators need to focus on the pre-takeoff checklist, if everything went by the book
or if they were distracted by something |
Ch4HDnews
has a reporter in India 75 people are missing around the area where the plane crashed. Air India has stated they will compensate |

…well of course…and an unprecedented/landmark payment for the airline, I would think…Will they still be able to exist as an airline from that…?… |
there was another similar incident, also an Air India plane
this one however returned safely to the airport so now why did this one crash, and why does the other one, land safely despite same issue what were these pilots doing differently? i am also thinking this aircraft might've been in ****** Landing Mode, if the angle is exactly right, then it can go into that mode, and then it keeps the gear down, it retracts the flaps since you don't need them like you do during takeoff, and it slows down the engine thrust Turkish Airlines flight 1951 had that when it crashed miles in front of schiphol many years ago, with this problem could this problem having surfaced again? |
We flew to Spain today and were sitting by the wing so had a good view of the flaps opening and closing...they are innocuous looking things aren't they, the person in front was practically flying the plane, everyone is a pilot now and when we landed, lsome people clapped, were they expecting to die, it was just so random, a breakout round of applause, no one ever applauds a taxi driver if he delivers you to your door :laugh:
