Media is full of speculation and sensationalism when it comes to incidences like this. Whatever the reason for the incident, I applaud the flight crew for their handling and managing to land the aircraft safely.

"The aircraft are getting a bit old and the engineers have been on strike so they might be flying with lower maintenance standards," one insider said.

An insider told you this?!!? My dog could have told me that.

Where are the FACTS - what happened to NEWS reporting agencies giving us FACTS??
