Zest Air Overshoots Runway
« on: June 25, 2009, 07:15:31 PM »
Thirty-two flights to Caticlan Airport were cancelled after a Zest Air (formerly Asian Spirit) flight overshot a runway Thursday morning.

The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) suspended flights to Caticlan until 6 p.m. Thursday.

In a statement, Cebu Pacific said its 10 flights (Manila-Caticlan-Manila) were cancelled due to the airport's closure.

Cebu Pacific said it has dispatched an Airbus A319 to accommodate the affected passengers.

The Zest Air flight Z2-863 with tail number RPC 8992 exceeded the airport's Runway 6 at 7:43 a.m.

The CAAP said one of the plane's tires blew up and its noose gear got stuck on the runway, but no one was injured.

The plane had 54 passengers, one flight mechanic, and four crew.

The CAAP was forced to cancel flights to Caticlan as it ordered an investigation into the incident.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Accidents do happen it just seems these days no airline is too safe!

Last december for example my daughter and i had flown Cebu Pacific and just before leaving on the runway for take off the plane stopped suddenly and we were toowed back to the terminal where we waited on board nearly one hour as the airline mechanics fixxxed the control panel that malfunctioned just before take off!

When I had informed one of my radio media colleagues he contacted the press relations officer of that airline and denied any such thing had taken place.

I have flown Cebu Air since then and my flights have been fine since then.

This year the world has encountered many major airline accidents. It does not make me comfortable any further because I have almost myself been in a plane in where I was lucky that the control panel did not break down while in flight.

I wish though that they would of transferred us o another plane instead of making my flight more intense at the time in praying that the plane would not break down in flight!!!


Happy Flying Everyone!

So Zest Air is the former Asian spirit. I still have the nightmare of this airline. Never again I will fly with this airline. I fly Cebu Pacific once and the Asian spirit once and pray the rosary over and over again lol. Philippines Airline and American airline my first choice. As husband say "better pay the highest fare of airline then you were guarantee this airline have very good maintenance.
