Too much&#8217;s been in the news! Initially, it was reported that over 50 were rescued and are safe but then the day became the saddest one as it was revealed that no one out of 147 passengers and 6 crew members could survive.</p><p>As the events are being unfolded, CAA (Civilian Aviation Authorities) has submitted an initial report which contains the warning from the control tower to the pilot. The report says the recording is as follows:</p><p><strong>Control tower’s first warning:</strong> You are getting away from the runway.</p><p><strong>Pilot’s response:</strong> We can see the runway.</p><p><strong>Control tower’s second warning:</strong> Turn to your left immediately, you are heading towards Margalla Hills.</p><p><strong>Pilot’s response:</strong> We can see that.</p><p>This was the last reply form the pilot and then the flight lost its contact with the control tower and soon after it crashed.</p><p>CAA&#8217;s initial report says that the pilot took the wrong turn and turned to left instead of turning right. Now hang on! Isn&#8217;t that contradicting to the recording? The pilot was asked to turn left immediately! Whereas the report says the pilot should have turned to right. So apparently it seems the fault and responsibility of 152 casualties is at the control tower!</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://guppu.com/2010/07/28/islamabad-plane-crash-the-control-tower-at-fault/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
