Dimwit, so checking on the navigating system which is onboard the front deck equals checking for mechanical faults?


It's like a driver who thinks check the radiator, dashboard functions et al makes him an auto mechanic.




Well a pilot is expected to do his pre flight checks and also constantly scan his instruments enroute to ensure they are in green and functioning properly. The person you quoted has a working knowledge of what he is saying.
It is basically an issue on the ground perhaps during push back or taxiing.

Big lie. How com it's on a blog only, can't find it on any news site.



Muchweeee cheap nonsense. Na only lights I see for that pics oo.

Next!!!

What do you possibly think could have caused it? signal failure from the control room? if yes, why should the pilot go ahead without signal?

i think you r sick in d brain instead of praying for the avoidance of future occurrences of this nature you seem wishful n supportive of them....if i were to be ob dat flight n made it out safely only to tumble on your comment, i'd never be happy with

What would make an airfraft collide wit another aircraft on land?

Reference:
All sorts of things. If there is no ground radar it is an accident waiting to happen. Lucky for them it was the tail. If the fuel laden wing was punctured....

These are some of the functions of a pilot...
making sure all information on the route, weather, passengers and
aircraft is received;

using that information to create a flight plan, which details the
altitude for the flight, route to be taken and amount of fuel required;

ensuring the fuel levels balance safety with economy and
supervising the loading and fuelling of the aircraft;

making sure all safety systems are working properly;

briefing the cabin crew before the flight and maintaining regular
contact throughout the flight;

carrying out pre-flight checks on the navigation and operating
systems;

communicating with air traffic control before take-off and during
flight and landing;

ensuring noise regulations are followed during take-off and landing;

understanding and interpreting data from instruments and controls;

making regular checks on the aircraft's technical performance and
position, on weather conditions and air traffic during flight;

I won't give you the source....It's just like a driver jumping to the wheel without checking basic safety practice... you don't need to be an engineer to know the basic thing. I have decided not to follow out insult anymore...I know you've learnt something today...Enjoy your day

The pilot is high on wet weed or sleeping on duty...either case, he should be sanctioned

My name no tell you who I be?

na the same thing wey make bird perch ontop high tension con turn woman for oshodi.

kpofkpof:
I believe this was not a pilot factor, but the fault should be on the part of the Air traffic control officers

Oh Thank GOD. But the pilot they sleep ni?

Cutehector:
alright.. Wat abt the conductors (sorry I use dis word cuz I dnt knw aeronautic terms) I mean those people who wave their hands with signs wen controllin d movement of the craft.. Ddint they see it?

Lanretoye:
they are not conductors oo, they are agberos...lol
they are called aircraft marshallers
