May 29, 2000 Dhaka,
May 28 (UNB) – An inquiry committee of Civil Aviation Authority,
Bangladesh, found lack of skills of the pilots for an accident of a GMG
Airline aircraft here on April 8. The
three-member committee headed by CAAB deputy director Jalal Ahmed
emphasised on ensuring more flight safety of the private airliner and
proper training of pilots, sources at the CAAB said. It
recommended cancellation of commercial license of the Romanian pilot,
Sharin, who was piloting the Dash-8 aircraft when he went for a heavy
landing resulting in breaking the front nose wheel gear of the plane. Sources
said the inquiry committee in its report submitted recently also
recommended higher training of co-pilot of the aircraft, also a Romanian,
Prodar. There
were 37 passengers on board the plane when the pilot resorted to heavy
landing. None was injured. However, the GMG, country’s most successful
private airliner, initially had denied that the aircraft met with the
accident.
