Today will talk about the Pakistan International Airlines Flight 8303 crash in which 97 people lost their lives due to the negligence of the pilot. Only two people were saved in this accident, all the rest of the people were burnt alive by the fire in the plane after the crash.
On May 22, 2020, Pakistan International Airlines Flight 8303 took off from Lahore’s Allama Iqbal International Airport at 1:50 PM in Karachi, Pakistan.
On the flight, there were 91 passengers including eight members of the Crew. The plane was being flown by Captain Sajjad Gul and First Officer Usman Azam. It was a domestic flight. The plane was approximately 16 a long time ancient
The aircraft made its first flight in 2004 and was used by China Eastern Airlines until 2014. Then this plane was handed over to Pakistan International Airlines. The maintenance of this plane was done two months ago i.e. on 21 March 2020.
Was there any technical fault in this plane?
The plane was perfectly fine with no technical problems. From 22nd March 2020 to 7th May 2020 all flights were grounded due to the Covid epidemic. From May 7 to May 22, this plane had flown only six times.
The Civil Aviation Authority had cleared the plane to fly by November 5, 2020. The plane had completed more than 47,000 flight hours so far.
We know what happened to this plane on May 22. On May 22, 2020, the PIA 8303 flight took off from Lahore’s Allama Iqbal International Airport at 1:50 PM.
Instructions to the pilot by ATC
After traveling for about one and a half hours, the flight started preparing for landing at Jinnah International Airport Karachi at 2:45 PM. The plane was at an altitude of 10,000 feet when it should have been at an altitude of 7,000 feet, so quickly ATC said that your plane was flying 3,000 feet above the light slope.
So follow the rules but the pilot told them that the plane was under their control and would make a safe landing so don’t choose it. However, your aircraft is still at a high altitude, so the ATC once again communicated to the captain that your flight altitude should be 3,000 feet above this time, while your plane is at an altitude of 7,000 feet.
So go around the airport i.e. circle the airport maintain altitude and then land, but this time the captain’s answer was the same the plane is under our control and we will make it land safely.
This was the biggest mistake of the pilot, then the landing gear of the plane stopped and the pilot did not even know about it, he disabled the onboard pilot mode and took the command.
As soon as the ATC saw the landing gear, they asked the captain for the third time if they were going to do a belly-up landing. There was no response from the pilot. Care alarm and speed alarm, the pilot of which was now disturbed, he did not understand what was happening all of a sudden, then the plane touched the ground and began to rub, and sparks started coming from both engines of the plane.
And then they were completely damaged. The corn pilot decided to go around and fly the plane again without landing. By then the plane’s engine caught fire. ATC cleared both runways of the quickly Airport. given so that the pilot can land on any runway after the go-around The pilot was also told about this. The pilot started trying to increase the speed of the plane, but instead of increasing its speed, it decreased.
What do Mayday words mean Why do pilots use them or when do they use them?
And there, like a wounded feather, the ATC tried to contact them So the pilot said three words “Mayday Mayday Mayday” and the plane then crashed between houses in a residential area, after which its rags flew off, killing ninety-seven people on board. While only two pilgrims somehow survived this accident, people admitted them to Jinnah Hospital As soon as the accident came to light, police and fire brigade vehicles reached the spot, but except for two pilgrims, all the pilgrims were burnt to death in the plane.
Mayday is a term that is used again by air traffic and marine traffic. It is used when the plane is in danger of crashing This word is used three at a time when human life is affected It is repeated three times so that the person sitting on the other side can hear the emergency call
This means that the life of the passenger sitting on the plane is in danger And the passenger needs help
Some names have also been fixed in different countries regarding this word
In some countries, it is expected to be used by firefighters, police forces and transport organizations again The beginning of this word was in 1920. In the French language, Mayday means help me or help me. Now let’s talk about the real causes of PIA 8303 plane accidents. The black box was taken out, after which it was found that the fault was the captain’s because the weather was also very clear and there was no technical fault in the plane. The ATC was giving them repeated hints that the height of the plane was high, but they had another concern, their overconfidence. but they still did not listen to him and said that we would make a safe landing.
The third issue was the non-opening of the low-altitude landing gear. The plane was at an excessive height during landing. The landing gear did not open and the pilot had to land it somewhere without landing gear.
The engine of the corn plane caught fire and got damaged and the plane crashed
To date, no inquiry has been made into this accident and no action has been taken against those responsible for this accident, thus these people are playing with precious lives.
