Applause 650 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Donetsk, Ukraine (CNN) -- The road isn't easy -- past shelling and eerie separatist checkpoints. But where it leads is harder still. Twelve days after MH17 was blown out of the sky, pieces of the plane remain here, but for days investigators haven't been able to reach the site. On Wednesday, efforts to get to the bottom of the deadly crash hit another roadblock, as Ukrainian officials warned of possible landmines near the site. The wreckage sits in tomb-like silence -- a monument to cruelty, to how 298 souls -- some shipped in parts, away on a separatist train -- have yet to find complete rest. There are flowers and a teddy bear on the ground, where strangers have tried to mourn. The crash site still reeks of jet fuel and the stench of decay. Shrapnel holes are visible in the cockpit's remains.

Applause 650 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 But why?... Could speculate, really. I can guess a cover up from Putin (trying to rid as much evidence linking to Russia). But, that's just how things look for me so far.. Xalser Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

YCHofficial 5,293 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 A MALAYSIA Airlines flight had to abort take-off at Adelaide airport yesterday to avoid a collision with an incoming Tigerair plane. Malaysia Airlines flight MH136 was accelerating down the runway with 167 passengers on board for its journey to Kuala Lumpur when air traffic control was concerned about the flight path of an incoming Tigerair plane. Reported in the Aviation Herald , the Tiger plane was on a path “too high and too fast†and was instructed to make a “go-around†by air traffic controllers, who wanted to make sure the Malaysia Airlines plane “didn’t climb underneath itâ€. The following statement was released by Malaysia Airlines to the New Straits Times : “MH136 was ready to depart Adelaide Airport and already on take-off roll when it was instructed by Adelaide Air Traffic Control to discontinue its take-off as the inbound aircraft discontinued its landing and was infringing the vicinity of the takeoff path.†Tigerair said the order for a go-around was a common and standard procedure. “A Tigerair aircraft (flight TT 449) from Melbourne to Adelaide performed a standard go around procedure during decent into Adelaide on Tuesday morning. “A go around is a common and safe practice that pilots are well trained to undertake when required. Safety is always the airline’s number one priority and was not an issue at any point.†Air Services Australia said reports of a “near-miss†were inaccurate and that the pilot of the incoming flight requested a routine “go-around†due to an unstable approach. “A go-around is a safe and well-practised manoeuvre that sees an aircraft discontinue its approach to the runway when landing,†a statement from the authority said. “Additionally, and to ensure the continued safe operations at the airport, air traffic controllers requested an international flight discontinue its takeoff. “Safety is our priority and at no time was the safety of any passengers or aircraft compromised.†It comes as Malaysia Airlines is struggling in the wake of two tragedies involving its aircraft. Two weeks ago, MH17 was shot down over eastern Ukraine, killing 298 people, and in March, MH370 disappeared during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.

Mr Josh 3 Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Near misses are common, no major media outlet would have reported it if it involved some other carrier. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsterMum 2,532 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 This is not something you can blame Malaysian Airlines for. It was on plan while the TigerAir had to make a go-around.
