Air France--not again....but nearly.

Recommended Posts

Hi Rick,

 

The Aviation Herald reported on this a few weeks ago:

It sure makes you wonder about their flying proficiency. I'm at a loss to understand why they weren't aware of the surrounding terrain, as the 777 has a way of specifically showing terrain data on the MFD.

 

Cheers,

 

Jerome

This should be as much a reflection on the state of atc in Africa as on the pilots.

I only just saw it on the BBC webpage an hour or so ago. Do not subscribe to the Aviation Herald.

 

And you do have a point, of sorts, KevinAu.
