Andrew K 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2008 Thursday August 21, 2008 MYT 10:45:25 AM Missing pilots found - one alive, one dead By R.S.N. MURALI KUALA TERENGGANU: Search and rescue workers on Thursday morning found the two pilots who went missing shortly after their aircraft took off from the Sultan Mahmud airport here on Wednesday. One pilot was found alive while the other had succumbed to serious injuries. The trainee pilots were feared missing after they failed to state their altitude or respond to the air traffic controller minutes after taking off. The pilots, aged 21 and 20, were flying a Diamond Star DA40 aircraft on a training flight from Kuala Terengganu to Langkawi International Airport. The aircraft belonged to HM Aerospace Flying school. The flight took off at about 4.23pm from the airport and the pilots were supposed to have radioed the position of their aircraft to the air traffic controller but they failed to do so. OCPD Asst Comm Zamri Shamsuddin said the aircraft was last seen flying at an altitude of 20m and eye-witnesses claimed that they heard the plane's engine which was described as raucous. Eyewitness Tong Kundang, 32, a machine operator at Bukit Jong quarry in Tepoh, said he witnessed an aircraft flying very low and it looked like it was gliding towards a plantation before it disappeared from his view at about 5pm. "I knew something was wrong because the aircraft was flying extremely low and it looked unstable,” he said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like most of my fellow pilots, we all flew solo ( without instructor) at 18-19 years old. By 20 most were with at least CPL I/R. I don't think age has anything to do with the crash.

Radzi 2 Report post Posted August 21, 2008 My condolences to the deceased. Al Fatihah. I wonder if the pilots are cadets with MAS or AirAsia, or private students. To my knowledge this is only the second fatal accident involving a flying school; the first one was a Piper Archer 9M-SKA with MFA that hit the satellite dish over Gunung Pulai near JHB. The solo pilot was killed in that incident. Of course there were many more involving the military; not so sure about the flying clubs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
