Perilous Journeys : Aviation in Pakistan

Description

Rashid Ali, an academic who teaches avionics at the University of Hertfordshire, says senior aviation officials in Pakistan have told him that two other planes diverted to Lahore that evening rather than attempting to land in Islamabad. He wonders if the full truth will ever come out. "But in Pakistan it is easier to brush things under the carpet and just blame the dead pilot," he says.
