The (Real) Facts of the Indonesian Report

from Flight Safety Detectives · host Big Pond Podcasts

Episode 13 The Indonesian National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) final report regarding the crash of Lion Air Flight 610 continues to get a lot of media attention. Moving away from soundbites, John and Greg examine the actual words and facts found in the report and call out numerous false narratives. Chaos in the cockpit? The report mentions that the sound of pages being turned in the operations manual could be heard on the cockpit voice recorder. Aircraft failure? The report does not support that conclusion. The report documents known maintenance issues that were not fixed more than 20 days before the crash. It also fails to dig into the pilot training program. These and other facts in the report lead to conclusions other than the current focus on the aircraft as being the root cause of the crash, according to the Flight Safety Detectives. They also discuss recent developments at Boeing and the impacts for airlines, employees, investors and the flying public. Photo: Greg in the simulator at Boeing Headquarters in Seattle.
