Why Air Peace will continue to have trouble by Mediaguru55: 12:03am On Jul 30, 2019 |
-How he was linked with ADC plane crash that killed Sultan Maccodo This is obviously a trying moment for Peace airline. This is because of its notoriety for tyre-related aviation accidents in the past two years. Within this period, the ailine has recorded no fewer than four tyre burst incidents with the latest at Lagos airport last week when its aircraft crash landed after a damaged tyre burst. Sources in the aviation industry has placed the course of the incessant problem on sharp practices on the part of the airline's procurement department and the tyre supplier for the airline. The source who identified Peace Airline tyre supplier as Airline Management Supports Nigeria Ltd revealed how the company allegedly compromised quality in the industry. While the company headed by Capt. Ekundayo Olubadewo is a major airline tyre supplier in Nigeria, Arik Air remains the only company that has refused to pateonise it, thus buys directly from the manufacturer. The company according to investigation has a standing franchise holding with Dunlop Aircraft Tyres Ltd in Birmingham, England as its representative in Nigeria. However, it was reliably gathered that most of the tyres the company supplies to its customers were often retreaded as they ship worn out tyres to China and then bring them back as new, thereby being used for landing times as new. "What they do is to collect all the used tyres and send them by container to Dunlop retreading factory in China where they would be re-packaged and ship back for our airlines just like tokunboh tyres. Isn't it curious that an airline will record similar accidents within months" the source explained. News of the people exclusively gathered that one David Jones is the go-between the Airline Management Supports and Dunlop, England. Meanwhile when News of the People contacted Dunlop headquarters in Birmingham, the head of marketing Stuart Hawker confirmed that Airline Management Support (AMS) is Dunlop’s appointed distributor in Nigeria and West Africa of many years standing. He however declined to speak on incessant accidents involving one its end user saying 'Dunlop does not comment in public about any aspect of any commercial relationship, between it and either its customers or its operators' Hawker further explained that the retreading of tyres for aircraft is common practice, and is subject to appropriate airworthiness approvals. According to a reliable source, the company was allegedly culpable in the 2006 ADC plane crash that killed Sultan of Sokoto and several others as investigations by Nigerian Aviation http://www.newsofthepeople-ng.com/real-reasons-air-peace-plane-crashed/ 1 Share

Traveling by air is now a 50/50 chance. Many planes are now old that its part can disintegrate at any moment. Imagine engine failure at 33,000 ft or oil leakage from the engine causing explosion and fire. I would prefer to travel by water 500 times to air. |
