[VERY old thread] Cyprus crash

[nem]

Aw come on. It is clearly the airline's fault:

- they use maintenance crews who forget to put the pressurization knob in place,
- they let a cockpit crew fly who is unable to communicate in emergency situations and who apparantly lack's emergency training,
- they rely on a maintenance base who advises to just shut off an alarm instead of thinking about and taking care of the most probable reason for the
alarm.

That's a disastrous chain of events where you can't put the blame on just one link.

You're right.
It's just that if I'd see oxygen masks dangling from the overhead, I'd be so scared I would try to land ASAP! That's for sure!

I hear you, I can't understand why they didn't at least level out right away. there's no nedd for communication in that case either - if the Captain
sees the masks coming down I'd expect him to make the call and level out the plane until it's clear what happened!

I know this topic is way old but the name of the island is Cyprus not Cypress

It is not a good idea to start adding to an old thread especially one with a sensitive "header" like this one, so I shall close the thread
