Inadequate Training Key To Garuda Indonesia Excursions

 

WASHINGTON—Final reports by Indonesia’s National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) on two 2015 Garuda Indonesia Airlines runway excursions point to inadequate training for pilots and, in one case, for air traffic controllers.
The first serious incident, in February 2015, involved an ATR72-600 landing at the Lombok Praya International Airport on the island of Lombok, Indonesia,after a short flight from Bali.
According to the final report, the pilot-in-command (PIC) most likely used improper flight control inputs to counter a crosswind after the aircraft bounced three times upon landing, causing the twin turboprop to exit the right side of the runway.
While no passengers or crew members were injured, damage to the aircraft included a collapsed nose gear and damage to the right propeller.

I think Indonesian aviation, especially military, still has some way to go before achieving international standards.

 

ICAO must really watch them like a hawk ...
