Imran K. 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2006 Haha @ Pieter With so many indonesian carriers losing their aircrafts in such horrible..and most of the time avoidable circumstances...it makes we wonder of the state of the aviation industry in Indonesia. Do the pilots undergo sufficient training? Are the aircraft well mantained in accordance with international standards? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wai Hung 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2006 the aircraft failed to rotate? i guess the pilots engaged the RTO brakes, if not, the aircraft will crash at high speed and i doubt that the plane will still be in one piece... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
