Preliminary to the downfall of
the company Embraer LAM Mozambican flag , last November 29 , investigations
have ruled out mechanical failure had originated the disaster that caused 33
deaths , according to official sources .According to the commander João de
Abreu , president of the Institute of Civil Aviation of Mozambique ( IACM ) ,
elements taken from the black boxes from the crash site and in Namibia reveal
no mechanical device failures ." The investigations are continuing and
should be completed even before the 30 -day time limit recommended by the
International Civil Aviation Organization " , Joao de Abreu said, speaking
to reporters on Saturday .
Speed in finalization of the
investigation shows that there clarity in the reasons of the crash ?

and conferenciados the standards of the aircraft , which dialog between the

of something abnormal? Ha prefers voices of the cockpit area ?

updrafts ) has caught the pilot , according to U.S. meteorologists that
fateful morning ?
Replies to find a historic air
disaster that almost always human error as the reason . It is not known by
human error in operating sequence under pressure Aircraft premeditated or human

The pilot of a Boeing
Singapore who fell in a swamp in Indonesia three years ago would have made the
plunge deliberately , in an apparent suicide plane, according to American
researchers of the accident . There were no survivors among the 104 people
aboard .The conclusion contradicts the Indonesian researchers , whose report ,
released this week , says there is no way to explain what happened .According
to the National Transportation Safety Board of the U.S. , the Boeing - 737
SilkAir not had mechanical failure and drop " can be explained by
intentional pilot action " .The Silk Air plane crashed into the Musi river
in the jungle of Sumatra , during a regular flight from Jakarta to Singapore on
December 19, 1997 . The circumstances of the episode caused bewilderment from
the beginning. In a clear sky , the plane crashed in an almost vertical dive
from an altitude of 10,600 meters . The experts found that the voice and data
recorders of the cabin had been turned off half a minute before the plane
started to dive .According to the 200-page report of the Indonesian National
Committee for transport security , because " the highly fragmented
wreckage and the almost total absence of data, information and useful clues ,
the committee is obliged to conclude that the technical investigation found
nothing to explain the cause of the accident . "But the U.S. report states
that the wreckage showed that their engines were operating at high power at
impact and that the controls had been willing to make the plane dive ."
The plane left the cruise flight as a result of an intentional maneuver that
would have required prolonged efforts to control the flight and most likely
would have been performed by the master ," says the report .
The pilot of the aircraft, the
Singaporean Tsu Way Ming , had debts of shares outstanding and high bills in
the credit card market . Also, could not honor a loan.Tsu had lost a new job as
a flight instructor in June of that year , after an incident in which disabled
a voice recorder of an airplane during a flight .Days before the disaster he
had bought an insurance policy for $ 1 million insurance and indicated his wife
as beneficiary .The most mysterious and evocative of all was the discovery of
an incident that occurred years before , when the commander was Tsu aerobatics
pilot in the Singapore Air Force . On December 19, 1979 , four of his fellow
pilots were killed when they collide with a mountain shrouded in clouds in the
Philippines . Tsu only survived because a mechanical problem forced him to
return with his plane .
Nevertheless , the Indonesian
investigation found no evidence " indicating that the pilot, co - pilot or
crew member had suicidal tendencies or some reason to cause the accident
."Allegations of suicide pilots - and the implication that highly trained
staff of airlines can also be killers always generate controversy . A year ago
, when an Egyptair Boeing crashed into the Atlantic during a flight that
departed New York , claims that the fall was caused by suicide pilot infuriated
Cairo to the point that it came to be discussed in person by the governments of
U.S. and Egypt.
