[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 1187292, member: 1"] [URL="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324139404579019383681651294.html?mod=WSJ_hps_sections_news"][B]Investigators Focus on Pilot Procedures in UPS Jet Crash - Wall Street Journal[/B][/URL] Federal investigators indicated they increasingly were looking into pilot training and landing procedures, rather than airplane malfunctions, to unravel last week's crash of a United Parcel Service Inc. UPS +0.10% cargo jet. In coming weeks, investigators will conduct a flight test to learn more about UPS pilot procedures during landing approaches, safety-board member Robert Sumwalt told reporters Saturday. "This is just the very beginning of the investigation" and no conclusions have been reached yet about the probable cause, he said. He said the emphasis of the coming flight test will be to understand how UPS safety officials recommend or train pilots to fly the type of approach that was used in Birmingham during Wednesday's accident.
