usually it is supposed to be published within 30 days from incident as per standard procedures.

i hope the investigation will be transparent and not under any influence to save the culprits and there will not be blame game on flight crew who are no more among us to defend them-self

Maybe you are a pilot yourself, but do not forget flight crew error is the major cause of air crashes worldwide, so do not rule it out please

Folks here are ignoring the 800 pound gorilla of pilot-ibn-e-pilot-ibn-e-pilot inbred genetic disorder limiting the gene/talent pool of competent pilots getting into the airline.

The Multan Fokker crash was pilot error, so was the Airblue Islamabad crash...and I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case with this latest PIA ATR crash.

Dead bodies of four victims of PIA flight 661 crash will be transported to Chitral from Islamabad by a PAF C-130 Hercules transport aircraft, according to news sources.

On December 14, dead body of famous personality Junaid Jamshed was transported with honours from PAF Base Nur Khan, Chaklala, to PAF Base Faisal, Karachi by a PAF C-130.

Really easy to sit at home and say whatever you want but i suggest that you keep your foreign language terminology to yourself and stay quiet till the official investigation is over.

P.S Please tell me where in the market are "competent pilots" available?
