Plane Crash Near Death Ordeal: DETAILS by Maryannlive(f): 6:54pm On Apr 17, 2015 |
Our aviation industry has got to sit up.. On friday last week there was almost a plane crash. Aero contractors going from Abuja to Uyo. As the flight took off, 2mins in the air the flight started descending slantingly. The pilot then manage to navigate and turn back torwards the airport(abuja airport). Meanwhile passengers were already complaining and scared.. The pilot said bird flew into the engine... Then they manage to land (very rough landing) on landing the pilot then told the truth that one engine had spoil (no bird entered the engine), thats why they could not continue the trip. The question now is what if that engine got bad like 30mins in the air, what would have happen... Lives would have been lost, we would have been crying... When you enter planes in nigeria its like brt bus (dos bad ones in lagos). D plane will be making all sort of noise, inside of it is hot... I rotate the AC nob Left and right center ... nofin comes out.... Especially Arik and Aero Contractors... The other day Arik sold more tickets than seats so people were standing in the plane.. Haba.. Join me in using this medium to call on aviation regulators to look into the torn and worn down state of planes that are still flying... Is it until people that before they will sit up... Yesterday airport workers went on strike because of old, epileptic navigation equipment in the Tower... Haba.. Now if crash shd happen now how will dey know d point d plane went down so dey go n look for survivors... Nigerians are human beings not goats or cows, we deserve to be protected by the very GOVERNMENT we put in place. http://www.maryannlive.com/2015/04/plane-crash-near-death-ordeal-details.html |

Its horrible my dear. NAIJA planes are just flying coffins and it's so unfortunate that nobody seems to the foggy weather until the rain falls. Stupidity is when one, after flying for almost 20hrs successfully, lands in MMA and go ahead to board a local flight. I choose not to be stupid. "shouts" ABC transport, your passport to service |

Maryannlive: Bird strikes are a worldwide phenomenon, and are certainly NOT limited to African airspace. Rather than whining and complaining about the "rough" landing performed by your pilot in that emergency, you should be offering grateful praise to the captain for performing a successful single-engine landing, after having a bird impact disable one engine so close to the ground. Things could have turned out MUCH worse, so again, count your lucky stars. Read up about "The Miracle on the Hudson", when Captain "Sully" Sullenberger's Airbus A320 airliner sustained multiple bird strikes moments after takeoff, shutting down BOTH engines below 3000 feet altitude, and yet who managed to land his stricken airliner on the freezing waters of the Hudson River, just off the Manhattan shoreline, with NO injuries or fatalities recorded. |

PapiWata:The pilot later said no bird entered the engine, but one engine has spoil. Looking our skies here we don't have big birds that fly apart from vultures arnd death animals and cattle rearers(commonly known as Lekeleke) is found around cows n cattles. Read well before giving your analogy. If you actually enter planes esp d ones I mention you will know dey are in a terrible state and they are not suppose to be in the air. We shd put our voices together to have the aviation ministry shut down airlines that have not met up to expectations... Next time they might not be solo lucky... I put this post on fb n does who were on the airline came forward n narrated how terrible it was... |

Maryannlive: Engine failure too is not something that only occurs in Nigeria. It is a scenario for which all pilots train on simulators at regular intervals. If you feel dissatisfied with the maintenance culture of Nigerian airlines, then you have a valid point that there is much room for improvement, however, making reference to an engine failure as evidence of incompetence on the part of the pilot is unfair to the pilot, since he or she is NOT a part of the maintenance crew for the airline. |

PapiWata:Seriously, are u not reading well, I started by saying the aviation ministry needs to sit up, if for anyfin the pilot did well... But I blame the aviation ministry for even allowing that plane fly... For that engine to shut down in the air, something already went wrong which they ignored... |
