  • Zafar Masud is one of only two survivors of PIA Flight PK8303, which crashed in the suburbs of Karachi, Pakistan on 22 May 2020. It was the sixth Pakistani plane to crash in a decade. Here, he talks about 30 interminably long seconds before the crash, his miraculous survival and recovery, and the pressing need for improvement of domestic flight standards and safety. Zafar Masud is a seasoned banker and entrepreneur, focused on Development Finance, with over 27 years of proven track record of success and delivery.
    He’s serving as President & CEO of The Bank of Punjab (BOP), since April 2020, which has a network of 636 branches with ~US$7Bn balance sheet and ~13000 staff. He has extensive experience of working at Board of Directors level for major public and private sector entities. He also contributed as member of IMF motivated Task Force on Framing SOE Law, set-up by the Ministry of Finance.
    He is also a regular contributor to the local media on the topics of finance, economics and energy. His articles has been compiled in a book form called “Out of the Box”.
    In May 2020, he had survived PK8303 airplane crash in Karachi. His colleagues dedicated a book to him called “The Miraculous Survivor”. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    @Mentour Pilot has a fantastic, informative video on this crash. I highly recommend the channel, which does consistently good work. The video explaining what happened with this flight, and what could have prevented the crash, is so well-done and informative.

    He said he passed out shortly before the crash. No, what happened is the crash caused amnesia and basically erased his memories a few seconds before impact.

    • @mtm4a
      @mtm4a 6 месяцев назад +1

      @DavidWest2 - That's interesting, because I wondered about the reason for his fainting just before impact, and you have explained it.
      The other matter which I couldn't understand - I think he said that the cockpit door flew open just *before* they crashed - that he saw "chaos beyond" and that "it seemed like the plane was going to nosedive".
      Cockpit doors are supposed to be totally secure and impenetrable (as we sadly know from the Germanwings disaster a few years earlier).
      So can anybody explain how this anomaly could possibly have happened? Cockpit doors don't just fly open - and he said this took place about 30 seconds before the impact itself.

    • @DavidWest2
      @DavidWest2 6 месяцев назад +3

      @@mtm4a that one is a little harder to explain, my guess based on the "chaos beyond" and "nose dive" wording is that his memories got a bit scrambled at the very end before impact. Perhaps a bit of the crash itself got embedded in his brain as a memory and when his brain tried to make sense of the nonsensical memory, it turned into "the cockpit door flew open".

    • @DiscerningTruth577
      @DiscerningTruth577 6 месяцев назад

      It could’ve happened as a result of grazing the runway which was traumatic enough to damage the engines. Also, I don’t think other countries all have strict cockpit door protocols like our FAA regulates. I would certainly think PIA did not.

    • @zaib6092
      @zaib6092 6 месяцев назад +1

      I don't think the cockpit door was open; perhaps his mind conjured up this idea after the crash. Another thing he said was that the plane was nose-diving, which, in my opinion, is also not true. The plane's nose was up because the pilots were desperately trying to make it to the runway, as recorded in the CCTV footage. He was extremely anxious, and as he became unconscious, his mind just filled in the gaps. I wish he had talked more about that part, but at the same time, I can understand how difficult it must have been for him to do so.
