Well apparently the plane, 737-200, that crashed in #Islamabad was about 23yrs old... was flying its first flight after a long time.

Bhoja Air is the second such crash that has taken place in Islamabad within a space of two years. In July 2010, 152 people were killed when another private airline crashed into the Margalla mountains which overlook Islamabad. The aviation regulator, Civil Aviation Authority, is yet to issue the final report in that crash but pilot error was cited in an initial report.
