A third of airline pilots in Pakistan have fake licenses, the nation's aviation minister said while citing pilot error for a recent crash

Security personnel stand beside the wreckage of a plane at the site after a Pakistan International Airlines aircraft crashed in a residential area days before, in Karachi on May 24, 2020.More than 30% of commercial airline pilots in Pakistan have fake licenses, the country's aviation minister said.262 of the country's 860 commercial pilots have been grounded due to the illegitimate licenses.

The shocking revelation came as part of the investigation into the crash of a Pakistan International Airlines jet in May. PIA flight 8303 crashed near Jinnah International Airport in Karachi, killing 97 people. The revelation came alongside a preliminary report announcing the results of the crash investigation. Pilot error was cited — the two pilots were chatting about the coronavirus pandemic during sensitive parts of the landing procedure, and repeatedly ignored warnings from air traffic controllers.

In an address to Pakistan's National Assembly, the aviation minister, Ghulam Sarwar Khan, said that 262 of the 860 active commercial airline pilots in the country "did not take the exam themselves," according to CNN, referring to certification tests. The pilots in question had reportedly paid others to sit the exam for them.The 860 pilots flew for Pakistan International Airways — the nation's flagship carrier — as well as low-cost domestic airlines and foreign carriers.

Khan added that the pilots were instructed several times by air traffic controllers to abort their landing attempt because the plane was too high, "but the captain did not pay any heed to these instructions.""The aircraft touched the runway surface on its engines," the crash report said, causing sparks and damage. The pilots tried to climb back into the air, but the damaged engines failed, causing the crash.

Syrianvictims This is what we are facing from 6to7 yeasrs

For God´s sake. How irresponsible an unbelievable from behalf of the Pakistani Government to acknowledge that 1/3 of the flights are piloted by potencial assassins.

And the crash is blamed on the aircraft

No surprise there then 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
