Ethiopia Airlines rejects Lebanon report into air crash
BBC News
Ethiopian Airlines officials have bluntly rejected the findings of a Lebanese investigation into an air crash off Lebanon in January 2010.
The Lebanese report blames pilot error for the crash of flight ET409, in which 90 people died, sources say.
But Ethiopian Airlines officials say the plane exploded, which they say points to sabotage, a lightning strike or shooting down.
The Lebanese report was due to be released on Tuesday.
The Addis Ababa-bound flight crashed minutes after take-off from Beirut in stormy weather on 25 January 2010, with no survivors.
Lebanese Transport Minister Ghazi Aridi told AFP news agency it was "clear" that "there were errors on the part of the pilot and co-pilot who are entirely responsible for the plane crash".
According to AFP, the Lebanese report says the pilot and co-pilot had been working non-stop for 51 days and were exhausted.
Mr Aridi said the plane was sound and transcripts of the exchanges between the crew and air traffic control on takeoff had not indicated any problem.

Ethiopian Airlines AKA Woyane Airlines have been filled with unexperienced , unprofessional , illiterate and ex-guerilla fighters turned management and staffs since Woyane military junta won the civil war and took power in Ethiopia in 1991.
Being a Tigre Ethnicity
was the only qualifyig requirement to get a job in most fields at Ethiopian Airlines until the
badme war ended making
EFFORT THE
TIGRE CORPORATION
eligible for ALL WOYANES TO
startsteal AND ROB THE ECONOMY
INCLUDING BANKS
within Ethiopia.
The reputation of Ethiopian Airlines went down the drain long time ago as soon it became AKA Woyane Airlines. Too much corruption and illegal activities have plagued the organization for long it is Inevitable for crash like this one HAPPENING.
