Another rumour has it that traffic controllers did not keep the minimum recommended time distance between a b757 and the b737, putting THY plane into
difficult wind conditions caused by the heavy aircraft's engines... But these are the allegations put in place by Turkish airline pilots organisation
(TALPA).
On the other hand, Turkish civil aviation organisation is in a fight with Turkish airlines management, who are supposedly not paying enough attention
to technical maintenance of the planes...
As always, this accident would seem to me as a bad combination of lack of maintenance and human error either in the cockpit or ATC, maybe both. Either
way, it is displeasing when finance is the issue where safety is due...
