      • It reminded me of the Boeing 747 (cargo) crash in Afghanistan. Though the 747 crash was due to cargo shifting but the two are so similar (due to stalling).

        • Taiwan pilots 'lost thrust in one engine, restarted the other'

          (Reuters) - The crew of a twin-propellor TransAsia plane which crashed into a river in Taipei killing 35 people had lost power in one engine but shut down and restarted the other, investigators said on Friday.

          The reason for the pilots' action was unclear but a combined lack of thrust caused the almost-new turboprop ATR 72-600 to stall soon after take-off, Aviation Safety Council officials said after a preliminary study of 'black box' flight recorders.

          The plane, which can fly on one engine, was carrying 58 passengers and crew when it lurched nose-up between buildings, clipped an overpass and a taxi with one of its wings and then crashed upside down into a shallow river on Wednesday. Fifteen people survived.



          An ATR 72-212A (ATR 72-600) passenger plane, registered B-22816, was destroyed in an accident 5,3 km E of Taipei-Songshan Airport (TSA), Taiwan. There were 53 passengers and five crew members on board. The airplane operated on a flight from Taipei-Songshan Airport (TSA) to Kinmen-Shang-Yi Airport (KNH).


          "The airplane took off from Taipei-Sung Shan Airport's runway 10 at 10:51 hours local time and turned right, climbing to an altitude of 1350 feet. At 10:52 the master warning sounded in the cockpit associated with the right engine (nr.2) flame out procedure message. Some 26 seconds later the left hand (nr.1) power lever was retarded to flight idle. After twenty seconds the left engine condition lever was set to the fuel shutoff position resulting in left engine shutdown.
          Instead of continuing the climbing right hand turn, the airplane had turned left and began losing altitude and speed with several stall warnings sounding in the cockpit. At 10:53, the flight contacted the Sung Shan Tower controller declaring a Mayday and reporting an 'engine flameout'. The airplane then turned to the right while the crew attempted to restart the left hand engine."

            • AirAsia jet turns back to Malaysia due to technical problem

              "AirAsia X flight to Saudi Arabia turns back due to technical problem, lands safely in Malaysia

              KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) -- An AirAsia X flight heading from Malaysia to Saudi Arabia turned back shortly after takeoff Sunday due to a technical problem, circling for hours before landing safely back in Kuala Lumpur, the long-haul budget carrier said.

              The incident came after an AirAsia plane crashed into the Java Sea on Dec. 28 while flying from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore, killing all 162 people on board. That was the first fatal accident for AirAsia, the region's top budget carrier, which was formed in 2001. AirAsia X is the group's long-haul arm."

              "Incident: AirAsia X A333 near Kuala Lumpur on Feb 8th 2015, autothrust failure

              An AirAsia X Airbus A330-300, registration 9M-XXG performing flight D7-172 from Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) to Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) with 371 people on board, had just reached cruise level 300 about 110nm eastnortheast of Kuala Lumpur when the crew entered a hold to work the checklists on the failure of an autothrottle and subsequently decided to return to Kuala Lumpur. The aircraft burned off fuel and landed safely back about 4:45 hours after departure."

                Hi Fungus,

                This Simon Hradecky fella has got his compass bearings all mixed up. The aircraft was on the way to the middle east not the far east.

                  Limpost,

                  I'm not sure he's made any reference to the far east, unless I'm missing something obvious. There is a comment in the other link and the commentary regarding the AirAsia crash in the Java Sea and so there are two incidents referred to. That may be where the confusion lies. I could have worded my post in a better manner.

                  Regards,
                  Gregg

                  • Medical emergency forces (Virgin) plane to land

                    A Virgin jet flying from Adelaide to Sydney is back in the air after a sick passenger forced it to land in Melbourne.

                    The patient was taken to Royal Melbourne hospital in a stable condition, an Ambulance Victoria spokesman said.

                    Flight (VOZ/DJ)401 left Adelaide at 6am but made a sharp southward turn about half way through the two-and-a-half-hour flight to Sydney, flight radars show.

                    The plane has since resumed its journey.

                      Cent cinquante personnes sont mortes lors du crash mardi d'un Airbus A320 de la compagnie allemande Germanwings dans le sud-est de la France. Une boîte noire a été retrouvée parmi les débris qui s'étalent sur plusieurs kilomètres dans une région escarpée. La piste de l'accident est pour l'heure privilégiée.

                        • Yet again another mysterious crash of an A320. Watch the ADS-B data that was streaming from the plane and you'll see the flight was at 38,000 then shortly after entering French airspace for some odd reason the flight seems to start a controlled decent at about -3000 feet per minute. It stays on a track of 26 degrees the whole time. The last transmitted altitude was 6800 feet and the mountain it hit was 5300 feet high. It was traveling at 700 Km per hour when it hit... no wonder there is nothing left.

                                Wow I just saw the news... that's totally horrible and disturbing that a pilot would do this.
