Contrary to what most of the non-technical idiots in FAA
management think, facilities are important for Air Safety

Systems to check for a dangerous weather condition were
faulty at the time of Sunday's devastating air crash at
Phuket airport, Thai officials say. Some of the airport's
wind shear alert systems were not working properly, said
aviation official Vutichai Singhamany. Investigators have
said wind shear - a sudden change in either wind speed or
direction - was among the possible causes of the crash.

Officials in Phuket are still working to identify the
victims of the crash.At least 89 people were killed when the
plane, operated by budget airline One-Two-Go, skidded off
the runway.Many foreigners were on the flight.

So, you're taking a possibility and offring it up as a fact to
support an opinion.

Ecver thought of a job at Fox news?

Or maybe the Bush administration?

FACT-FAA Management is not technical or qualified only
politically correct Vagina's
FACT-The aircraft was landing in high winds
FACT-Passengers reported the aircraft "going up and down" on
approach. That is consistent with wind shear
FACT-The aircraft was on it's second landing attempt

I would say wind shear and lack of good weather information
by the pilot and controllers is a good possibility


Probably, but you are jumping the gun and using the possibility as a
crutch to suport your own agenda.


In any case, the crew were advised of the presence of windshear, and
would have known it was present anyway, as it always is undr those
conditions.


Fjukkwit.
