The flight data recorder has been located, NBC’s Fakhar Rehman reported from Islamabad, and the so-called or "black box" was expected to reveal why the plane went down. But the apparent cause was that pilots were flying low under heavy clouds and hit high-tension wires as they approached Benazir Bhutto International Airport, he said. (worldnews.msnbc.msn.com) 기타...

I posted this because it's no longer speculation, and it's also the first mention I saw of blackbox/wires.

Director general of the Meteorological department Arif Mehmood said the civil aviation authority had been twice warned about adverse weather conditions over Islamabad air space Friday, Geo New reported.

"The first warning was issued at 3:00 p.m. which cited major aviation hazards; the second warning was issued prior to 6:00 p.m.," he said.

Both warnings stated that the wind pressure was extremely high, Mehmood said adding that the Bhoja Airlines plane, which crashed, should have never been given permission to land.

"The plane should have been directed to land at the alternate airport, which is the Allama Iqbal Airport in Lahore," he said.

Director General of civil aviation authority (CAA) Nadeem Yousafzai later said the investigation into the plane crash could take anywhere from three months to one year.

what concerns me the most is that the plane was actually too old to fly....

A 32 year old plane is NOT old if it is properly maintained. There are plenty of "old" planes flying still in the US without problems!

I don't believe that scud running report for a second. Sounds more like wind shear to me.

127 people just died. They had husbands, wives, children, parents, friends, neighbors, and loved ones, who are all grieving. Then, on the other hand, there's you, who thinks it's cool to stereotype them all as terrorists just because you can. Glad that you have a good sense of the scope of things.

Phil rudd are you kidding me, many people died , have you no respect at all and that,s like saying if god forbid a southwest plane came down you would say "you get what you pay for" your sick and shame on you!!

Pakistan jet carrying 127 crashes

A Pakistani passenger jet with 127 people on board crashed Friday as it was landing in bad weather at an airport near the capital, Islamabad, officials said.

The Bhoja Air jet went down in farmland just a few kilometres away from the Benazir Bhutto International Airport, Defence Minister Chaudhry Ahmed Mukhar said.

There was no immediate word on any survivors.

A violent rain and wind storm was lashing parts of the capital around the same time as the crash.

The aircraft was travelling from the country's largest city of Karachi to the Pakistani capital when it crashed, officials said.

"We can see the plane's wreckage is on fire and we are trying to extinguish it," emergency official Saifur Rehman told Geo TV from the scene. "We are looking for survivors."
