  1. no aerosol allowed in luggage then how the hell this even was getting in to the plane? how they even scan the cylinder ? if its oxygen or something else? air security is in shambles in Pakistan. This is just avoided by Allah otherwise no checks on planes or the luggage are being done properly.

    get the grips CAA and ASF

  2. Reminds me of Aloha Airlines' Boeing 737 crash over Florida. The same oxygen cylinder.

    Which idiots run the PIA?

  3. In Pakistan people have little regard for any thing that may risk human life. This thinking prevails everywhere in our society, not only in PIA.
