Some of the 3rd world airlines look pretty dicey. Both pilot and copilot fell asleep in this Indonesian airplane and didn't answer calls from the tower. The pilot woke up though and landed safely. I think this was today.
Release of report today on a 2020 flight that killed all but 2 poeple and 1 one on the ground in Pakistan. A320 killing 97. The "below average intelligence" pilot who was domineering, combative, poor at dealing with stress, lack of special awareness, poor general awareness, little mechanical aptitude, landed too fast and too steep and forgot to put the wheels down, scraping the engines on the ground. Went around to land again and both engines failed. 2 were spared as it crashed.
