Re: JAF912 22nd FEB
Last night (24 Feb) there was an interview with an elderly couple on a programme called "Man bijt hond" (man bites dog) on Belgian national tv. In the interview the couple claimed that the flight from Faro to Liege was going to be carried out on the original plane, i.e. the one that had had the cracked wind shield. However, before take-off, an announcement was made that there was a computer problem and that the plane could not take off until that problem had been fixed. The couple said in the interview that after this second incident with the same plane passengers got so scared that they refused to continue and demanded another aircraft was used.
