Litany of errors led to Taiwan air crash: report
A catalogue of errors led the pilot of a passenger plane that crashed in Taiwan to shut down the only working engine, exclaiming: "Wow, pulled back wrong throttle," a damning report said Thursday. TransAsia Airways Flight GE235 clipped a bridge and plunged into a river shortly after take-off from Taipei's Songshan airport last February, killing 43 on board. The final report by Taiwan's Aviation Safety Council confirmed that after one engine had failed, the pilot had mistakenly shut down the other and the plane had stalled.
