AP-BMN emergency landing at Islamabad

Post by Vaqar Khan »

According to a news item in The Express Tribune PA212 made an emergency landing at Islamabad Airport because of engine problems. However, as bashing Shaheen Airline seems to be the flavour of the month the newspaper claimed the flight was operated by Shaheen Airlines. See report on following link:

However, according to a French language website "Crash-Aerien.aero" the flight was indeed Air Blue's flight PA-212 to Sharjah operated by Airbus A321 (AP-BMN).

As a journalist myself - the sensible/normal course of action is for the publication to write a notice of correction (effectively an apology) to SAI.

The journalism in Pakistan is incredible poor - anything aviation related is over sensationalized, factual information is often incorrect, images outdated.
