The flight on Sunday was the first by an ATR since then. "It wasn't PIA's idea to bring a goat into the mix. Airline spokesperson Danyal Gillani issued what was no doubt the first airline statement about goat sacrifice in the history of aviation: "It was done by some local employees as a gesture of gratitude over the clearance of the first ATR [for flying]."

Some Pakistanis believe that a black goat is particularly effective as a way to counteract black magic and the evil eye. * |
