Orient Thai sudden plunge

Post by regi »

An Orient Thai airplane between Phuket and Chengdu made a sudden plunge - probably intentional because of problem with pressurisation . ( and made an emergency landing at Kunming )

This plunge + drop of oxigen masks + unconfortable feeling ( bleeding noses ) made passengers panic. Understandable I would say.
Euh... not according Orient Thai. :shock:

Sad that Orient Thai made a denial press report, without making a website statement.

Very sad for an airline that has to get back credit from the public after the crash at... Phuket airport.

---local update ---: I was just informed that the local press is instructed to NOT publicize critical reports about Orient Thai. This fits in the OFFICIAL statement of the prime minister aka junta leader who treathened to execute media if they don't tell the truth ( whatever that may be :roll: )

The "denial strategy" has an inverse feeling to the modus operandi in India, even...
