Serious Wow SPH blamed SIA human error on weather and now blaming it on climate change

Many people commented that actually pilots and crews in SQ lost focus in their work and never pay attention to safety because their emotion was affected by hefty bonuses which they have received

3. Is turbulence increasing due to climate change?​

In a study published in 2023, Dr Paul Williams, a professor of atmospheric science at the University of Reading, said severe clear air turbulence over the North Atlantic Ocean has increased by more than 50 per cent during 1979 to 2020.

Dr Roth from NUS said the increase in clear air turbulence had to do with climate change, which alters the jet stream.

Jet streams are the relatively narrow bands of strong winds that occur at higher altitudes. This is typically the height at which commercial aircraft cruise because the planes can fly more efficiently.

Prof Yim, who is also the principal investigator at NTU Earth Observatory of Singapore, said air temperature increases at different rates depending on the distance from the ground. This uneven warming leads to turbulence as the air moves at different speeds.

“The projections are that with climate change, clear air turbulence will increase by a factor of two or three,” he said.

Dr Winston Chow, professor of urban climate at the Singapore Management University, noted however that the 2023 study does not mention the situation in South-East Asia or the Andaman Sea, where SQ321 encountered the turbulence.

A 2021 study by the University of Arizona found that the position of the North Atlantic jet stream could move out of its range of natural variability by as early as 2060 if the level of greenhouse gas emissions does not come down.

The study said that this will have “potentially drastic weather-related consequences for societies on both sides of the Atlantic”.

This is a very common air space in Thailand and Thailand aviation authority said that there were at least 20 airplanes in that similar airspace at that point of time it none of them had any incident

While turbulence can cause planes to lose altitude quickly, experts said the sudden dive for an aircraft the size of the Boeing 777-300ER was highly abnormal. Instead, it would more likely have been the pilots’ reaction, said analysts.

Pilot misjudgment or lost focus

“That amount of descent (relative to) time may not be subjected to a downdraft, it could be more indicative of the pilots reacting to the situation,” Mr Michael Daniel, managing director of consultancy firm Aviation Insight, told CNA's Singapore Tonight.

Investigation committee has not been formed but SPH immediately declare that this is due to weather. Utterly disrespectful to the victims
Of course the Nation building papers is the 1st to do the whitewashing.

Who cares about climate change ? Does it affect all of us ? If it does all human race or Singkie , the let it be.
Cos you wouldn't be able to do anything. We still need to stay open and stay safe. If we can't travel,we will all be shitty.

SPH and CNA are nothing more than gaslighting propaganda these days. Especially SPH after its media/news department was declared a not-for-profit entity, which means it has been 'nationalised' and wholly owned by the state.

Yalor...climate change is a profiteering campaign, no science at all.

Traitors have already sold out to the Davos anti-carbon cult. Hence you see the Tengah HDB experiment, 'SG Green Plan 2030', car-lite zones etc. :wink:
