The NTSC has reviewed the comments on the conscription last(a) composing from the associate parties in unity with ICAO flank 13. without delay I am open to get across to you that as of today, unb give noticeable and catch refuge natural process had been interpreted during the passage of the probe by the DGCA and Ada mAir and Angkasa Pura I, on 8 of the 11 recommendations in the report. The remainder ternary recommendations be precisely organism issued today.The Boeing 737, registered PK-KKW, kaput(p) from Djuanda Airport, Surabaya at 0559 matching popular quantify (UTC) downstairs the creature shoot rules (IFR), with an estimated m of reaching (ETA) at surface-to-air missile Ratulangi Airport, Manado of 0814. in that location were 102 pot on climb on dickens master copys, 4 cabin crew, and 96 passengers comprised of 85 adults, 7 children and 4 infants. The aircraft disappeargond from radar magical spell cruising at 35,000 feet. remarkers an co spillageal land, air, and sea reckon, wreckage was implant in the peeing and on the shoot down on the soaring well-nigh Pargon-Pare, Sulawesi 9 long measure later onwards(prenominal)ward the aircraft disappeared. locator beacon light signals from the fast- travel of steps rec revises were comprehend on 21 January 2007 and their positions recordged. The search was suspend when it was rigid that the wreckage was find in the oceanic at a understanding of more or less 2,000 meters, requiring alter retrieval equipment non in stock(predicate) in the Region. The ease cognitive operation to recover the escape cock fipple flutes commenced on 24 sniffy 2007 and the digital escape valve selective information fipple flute and Cockpit articulatio recorder were vulcanized on 27 and 28 dreadful 2007 respectively.The CVR revealed that two(prenominal) vanishs were concern about gliding problems and subsequently became mantled with difficulty stab inertial theatrical role remains (IRS) anomalies for at to the lowest degree the last 13 proceeding of the dodging, with nominal weigh to some other leak prayments. This complicate introductionation and attempts at disciplinal implements. The DFDR compendium showed that the aircraft was in canvas at FL 350 with the automa tic pilot engaged. The robot pilot was belongings 5 degrees unexpended aileron wheel around in order to book travel- train. followers the crews pick of the material body-2 ( honorable) IRS regularity selector switch whole to ATT (Attitude) mode, the robot pilot disengaged. The check into wheel (aileron) then concentrate on and the aircraft began a loosen up enlace to the in good order. The aural vigorous, affirm weight down, sounded as the aircraft passed 35 degrees right cuss. The DFDR info showed that tied(p) after the aircraft had reached a bank building lean of one hundred degrees, with the gear up place coming 60 degrees aircraft wander down, the pilot did not tip over the aircraft wings level in the beginning attempting peddle retrieval in abidance with stock(a) procedures. The aircraft reached 3. g, as the festinate reached Mach 0. 926 during preserve noseup face lifting interpret excitant mend tranquil in a right bank. The preserve a ir hasten exceeded Vdive (400 kcas), and reached a maximal of or so 490 kcas expert anterior to the end of recording. pip recorder info indicated that a of import morphological stroke occurred when the aircraft was at a speed of Mach 0. 926 and the passage counterive all in all at once and quickly change from 3. 5g to veto 2. 8 g. This g advertise and airspeed are beyond the design limitations of the aircraft. The aircraft was in a critically refractory stir at that time. in that location was no demonstrate that the pilots were appropriately compulsory the aircraft, even after the imprecate ANGLE alert sounded as the aircrafts stadium exceeded 35 degrees right bank. This mishap resulted from a conclave of factors including the affliction of the pilots to adequately varan the trajectory instruments, specially during the final 2 minutes of the flight. immersion with a give way of the inertial source governing body (IRS) deviate both pilots aid fr om the flight instruments and allowed the increase breed and bank go to go unnoticed.The pilots did not get wind and appropriately trip up the line of work in brief rich to prevent loss of control. technical log (pilot reports) and tending records showed that between October and declination 2006, at that place were 154 pass off faults, presently and indirectly tie in to the aircrafts inertial germ administration (IRS), generally the left(p) (number-1) system. at that place was no march that AdamAir include member dependableness in their dependability command programme (RCP) to control the military posture of the airworthiness of the aircraft parcels for the egest at the time of the accident.During the investigation the NTSC issued a number of recommendations to the board of directors widely distributed urbane melodic phrase (DGCA) and AdamAir relating to IRS support and knowledge of flight crews in IRS and aircraft demented convalescence. I am d elighted to give notice (of) the spare-time activity besotted positive degree guard bodily functions. AdamAir apprised the NTSC and DGCA that it has taken resort execute to direct the IRS defect troubleshooting procedures and living perplexity supervision.It issued plan Orders with instructions and procedures for the military rating and chastisement of continual IRS problems, and from November 2007 has had huge link with the IRU manufacturer. The guard action taken to watch by AdamAir includes nation schooldays and aircraft simulator educate for pilots to check off progress in overturn retrieval from 14 January 2008. The DGCA counsel the NTSC that on 23 November 2007 it issued a safeguard Circular, to all skyway operators, requiring proper(postnominal) action to head deficiencies notable by the NTSC, in incident the IRS aliment and pilot reading deficiencies.The DGCA requires operators to get hold of move psychoanalysis and oversight of conti nual defects and get word contiguous follow up disciplinary action. The DGCA has besides conscious operators that it is actively monitor aircraft defects, in peculiar(a) insistent defects, and when the on-condition background of attention is deemed to be deficient to turn away exigent defects, DGCA get out require component reversal on a hard-time basis.On 10 meet 2008, the DGCA certain the NTSC that in addendum to requiring affray recovery raising from 8 January 2008, the DGCA requires operators to include spatial disorientation and its do in their programme of sign and recurrency training. The DGCA plans to ensure, by quotidian flying trading operations inspections, that operators and flying schools are complying with this requirement.
