Non vorrei essere cinico, potete spiegare a chi come me non è pratico cosa dice il bolletino meteo?
Bollettino Meteo di Islamabad rilasciato alle 1500Z vento da 050° a 30 nodi, 4000m di visibilità con temporali, few a 2.500 piedi con cumulonembi, scattered a 3000 piedi, broken a 10.000 piedi, temperatura 20°C, rugiada 16°C pressione 1014hpa.
immagino che il veivolo era stato rigenerato visto la data di costruzione....comunque la sicurezza dei voli in paesi come il pakistan è abbastanza discutibile..,non so ancora le cause del disastro e non vorrei tirare conclusioni ma mi auguro che certe compagnie non metteranno mai piede in europa.....
