Rubani wawili almanusura wasababishe ajali baada ya kusinzia wakati ndege yao ikiwa angani umbali wa futi 37,000, hivyo kusababisha wapitilize njia ya kushusha ndege Nchini Ethiopia.

Baada ya kupitiliza sehemu ya kutua, waliamshwa na alamu maalum (autopilot alarm) ndipo wakaamka na kugeuza ndege hiyo Boeing 737-800 yenye abiria 154 na kutua vizuri, ndege hiyo ilikuwa ikitoka Sudan.

Waongoza ndege hawakupata mrejesho walipowasiliana nao kwa ajili ya kutua lakini baada ya alamu hiyo ndipo ndege ikatua dakika 25 baadaye.

Rubani hao wamesimamishwa wakisubiri utatatibu wa kiutawala.


====================


Two pilots fell asleep at 37,000ft (11,000m), missing an airport runway before waking to safely land the plane, an aviation publication says.

Air traffic tried to contact them after they overshot the point of descent into Ethiopia's Addis Ababa airport.

The Ethiopian Airlines crew were finally woken up by the autopilot alarm and landed the plane on the second approach, the Aviation Herald said.

Monday's passenger flight took off from Sudan's Khartoum airport.

The Boeing 737, with a 154-seat capacity, normally takes less than two hours on its route between the neighbouring countries.

Reactions to sleeping on the job ranged from sympathy with the pilots' work schedule to shock that they fell asleep on the job.

"I wouldn't cast blame on the Ethiopian crew specifically here - this is something that could happen to ANY crew in the world and it probably DID happen... The blame lies on the corporation and the regulators," read one comment on the Aviation Herald website.

Another user suggested that there was only one solution: "Termination. End of story. Full stop."

Others saw the funny side of the story, comment on Twitter, "Sleeping on the job taken to new heights!"

An aviation analyst called the incident "deeply concerning" on Twitter.

"Pilot fatigue is nothing new, and continues to pose one of the most significant threats to air safety - internationally," tweeted aviation analyst, Alex Macheras.

The BBC has contacted Ethiopian Airlines for comment.
 
Marubani wawili wa Shirika la Ndege la Ethiopia waliofika wanakoenda huku wakiendelea kusafiri kwa zaidi ya futi 30,000 angani wamesimamishwa na shirika hilo.

Hii ni kulingana na afisa wa shirika la ndege, ambaye alisema walisimamishwa kazi ili kupisha uchunguzi baada ya safari yao ya ndege kupoteza mawasiliano kwa muda na Udhibiti wa Trafiki wa Anga wa Addis Ababa mnamo Jumanne, Agosti 15.

"Ndege ilitua baadaye salama baada ya mawasiliano kurejeshwa..wafanyakazi husika wameondolewa kwenye shughuli wakisubiri uchunguzi zaidi.

Hatua zinazofaa za kurekebisha zitachukuliwa kulingana na matokeo ya uchunguzi. Usalama daima umekuwa na utaendelea kuwa kipaumbele chetu cha kwanza,” taarifa kutoka Ethiopian Airlines ilieleza.

Two Ethiopian Airlines pilots that arrived at their destination while still cruising at more than 30,000 feet in the air have been suspended by the carrier.

This is according to an airline official, who said they were suspended to pave way for investigations after their flight temporarily lost communication with Addis Ababa Air Traffic Control on Tuesday, August 15.

"The flight later landed safely after communication was restored. The concerned crew have been removed from operations pending further investigation. Appropriate corrective action will be taken based on the outcome of the investigation. Safety has always been and will continue to be our first priority,” the statement from Ethiopian Airlines read in part.

The dispatch from the airline, however, did not touch on reports that the pilots had allegedly fallen asleep mid-air.

The Aviation Herald reported that Flight 343, a Boeing 737-800 that was meant to begin descent to Bole Airport in Addis Ababa, overshot its destination. It reported that alerts were raised when the plane approached the international airport on August 15 but had not started to descend.

The autopilot system reportedly kept the plane cruising at 37,000 feet (11,200m).

Data from the aviation surveillance system ADS-B confirmed the incident, showing that the aircraft had overflown the runway, but then managed to make another approach and landed safely.

"[Air traffic control] tried to contact the crew numerous times without success," the Aviation Herald reported, adding that after overflying the runway at 37,000 feet, the autopilot disconnected, setting off an alarm that caused the pilots to wake up.

According to Skybrary, an online repository for air safety knowledge, a modern airliner such as a Boeing 777 will start descending from its cruising altitude and slowing its cruising speed when it is about 160 kilometres away from the airport. The goal is to gradually reduce height and speed so that the aircraft arrives at the runway at a safe speed for landing.

Air traffic control then directs the plane towards the airport by issuing a series of instructions until the aircraft approaches the runway.
