il existe aux USA un forum consacré spécifiquement au MX8x et 9x sur lequel de nombreux forumistes, le plus souvent PN s'expriment sur la vie de la famille Douglas....
quelques infos au sujet de ce vol .....je cite
-
The crashed aircraft was a 24-year-old workhorse, registered HS-OMG (c/n 49183). It was originally delivered to American carrier TWA in 1983 and had been taken over by American Airlines in the merger 2001. It had then been flying for One-Two-Go only for six months.
One-Two-Go recently announced a fleet expansion up to 14 MD-80 aircraft to be bought from JAL. It's present fleet basically consists of aircraft mustered out from U.S carriers. One-Two-Go was not a favoured airline in the crew section of this forum and many pilots asking about the working conditions at the airline were recommended by fellow MD-80 pilots not to join

Both Flight crewmembers were killed. The media is correct regarding the captain. The First Officer was Thai. He was in the initial class of One Two Go ab initio program. He was an engineer turned pilot. He had recently been hired by Thai Airlines with a class date in October. For the record he was a good young man. Well studied and well disciplined, well liked. An only son.
The captain.....was the Chief Pilot. It is no secret and will come out in the investigation.
He had lost his medical earlier this year and was grounded for two months.
The investigation should show fatigue being a contributory cause. Most likely will not even be considered. It will be "An act of God". Their words. I wonder if they believe that so that they do not ever have to take responsibility.
Unless some miracle manifests itself, all cabin crewmembers also perished. The pain and anguish is more than one should have to bear.
- The Captain of the flight, 56-year-old Indonesian retired air force officer Arif Mulyadi, died in the accident
