Shoddy maintenance, poor piloting/communication. Big problems with Asian airlines, analysts have been warning about this for awhile. A lot of Southeast Asian airlines are banned from US airspace for these reasons.

abigserve posted:Malaysian airlines has a pretty good reputation I think, the SEA airlines you are thinking of are the extremely "budget" airlines like Tiger Airways and poo poo Ah ok, I stand corrected. I remember the last 777 crash thread, several users were mentioning that ex pat pilots who train with Asian airlines say communication is a problem between pilot and crew. I can't remember if this was refuted or not though.

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the radio systems have their own power in case of an emergency?

From my Facebook feed: "Sounds like Iranians are somehow involved. Those Iranians are completely being overlooked. Think about it... why would they send a whole fleet to protest on the east coast of America while testing EMP missiles on the way over? Now this? Obama is a pussy and won't put his foot down. Just sayin..."

Blistex posted:The only explanation I can come up with is that this guy was/is such an insufferable sperglord, that his father made it his dying wish that everyone he came in contact with in a professional capacity should troll his son as hard as they could for as long as they could. My favorite part: "interestingly, my father was a fan of the TV show, Star Trek, created by Gene Roddenberry because he knew that the technology portrayed on the show had already been developed. He told me he was baffled as to why Roddenberry would be allowed to display the technology in such an open matter."

It took 2 years for AF 447 and that was only a couple years ago, with a much smaller area. Pretty soon news channels are going to get sick of no story.
