KUALA TERENGGANU, Aug 18 — The crash of the light aircraft in Bandar Elmina, Shah Alam, Selangor yesterday could have been caused by the problem on the wings, Menteri Besar Terengganu Datuk Seri Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar, who is also an aerospace expert.

“Looking from the visual evidence alone that is available to all of us, I would incline to believe the issue at hand would be more on the “flight control” - more towards problem on the wings, possibly either on the aileron failure or combination of both rudder and elevator,” he said. However, more information is needed in finding the cause of the incident including the crash site investigation, parts and debris micro and macro inspection, and flight black box analysis.

“Heartfelt condolences to the victims’ families from all of us in Terengganu. May their souls be blessed by Allah SWT,” he said.
