Former royal air force officer gives his insights on what happened moments before Elmina plane crash
SHAH ALAM – Former Royal Malaysian Air Force officer, Captain (B) Abdul Rahmat Omar Tun Mohd Haniff says that the Elmina crash looks like a result of loss of flight controls.
“Right now we don’t know much other than what we see in the videos and photos shared, but what we can see is a sudden deviation from the planned flight path preceding the almost inverted nosedive.
On the surface, it looks like a loss of flight controls,” he said.
He also added that there was not any distress calls being made due to the nature of what the plane was facing.
“The nature of what they faced was so grave that their concentration was on saving the aircraft and all on board. And of course, it happened so fast that nothing was transmitted,” he said.

He said that many things could have gone wrong during their past few minutes before landing.
“It could be technical-related, or human-related. It is hard for us to tell right now until CAAM finds out more and the preliminary report is issued,” he said.
Capt. Rahmat also reported that once the investigation has been completed, the findings, as well as recommendations for improvements for aviation development based on the findings, will be shared worldwide.
“These would definitely be shared with other aviation regulators, manufacturers, as well as users of the aircraft type, which will then be required to take steps to implement the improvements suggested,” he continued.
He also said that improvements will be made by sharing the information with pilots who are involved in flying this type of aircraft.

Meanwhile Malaysian Civil Aviation Authority former chairman Datuk Seri Azharuddin Abdul Rahman said that no one is in the place to speculate about the plane crash until thorough investigation is done.
“We don’t know, therefore a thorough investigation has to be carried out. I don’t want to speculate,” he said.
“To know what are the additional safety requirements (if any) learning from this recent crash, then we have to wait for the final investigation report as there will be “safety recommendations” (if any),” he added.
On Thursday, the private jet reportedly took off from Langkawi International Airport and got landing clearance at Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, but crashed two minutes before landing near Elmina, Shah Alam.
A total of 10 victims were confirmed to have died in the plane crash, eight of whom were passengers and its cabin crew, while the other two were civilians, a motorcyclist and a car driver who happened to be at the site before the plane crashed.
