They just woke up, let them have tea and do usual morning chores. Then they will realize what the real work is to be done.TAILWIND wrote: Sat Nov 24, 2018 7:27 pmNov 23 'update ' from CAA just says that plane overan rwy while landubg at Pangur and stopped so many feet after the rwy.

Re: PIA ATR Flight PK-517 Runway Excursion at Panjgur Airport
In the aftermath of the incident in Panjgur that occurred in November 2018 where an ATR skidded off the runway, using the hot and high approach and then making some elementary level mistakes. That prompted an inquiry into the pilot’s credentials which were found to be dubious. The same was reported to the regulator and PIA requested Government of Pakistan to constitute a high level inquiry into the matter which the Aviation Minister ordered immediately.
