　　Zhongxin Finance, April 11. Recently, there have been some rumors on the Internet about the cause of the "3.21" accident. What is the real situation?

Wu Shijie, deputy director of the Aviation Safety Office of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, said at a press conference on the 11th that the "3.21" accident is still under investigation, and no conclusions can be drawn on the cause and nature of the accident.

　　Wu Shijie said that the daily safety management of civil aviation pays great attention to the ideological and psychological conditions of aircrews, including pilots. This is an important content and method of civil aviation safety management.

On the basis of normalized safety inspections, the civil aviation system will carry out safety rectification from time to time, and these inspections and rectifications will involve, to varying degrees, related content including the stability of the air crew and the stability of their minds.

After the "3.21" accident, it had a certain impact on the psychology and emotions of front-line civil aviation practitioners. Some employees were emotionally fluctuated, especially some young aircrews had stressful psychological reactions, and their mood was low.

The Civil Aviation Administration attaches great importance to this, and the national civil aviation safety video and telephone conference specifically put forward requirements to take active measures to help pilots, flight attendants and safety officers relieve their psychological pressure. All airlines have immediately followed the long-term relatively complete system of the civil aviation system. Policies carry out relevant work, implement various operational safety guarantee measures, and ensure that aircrews maintain a stable and positive ideological and psychological state, and devote themselves to flight safety work.

This work has achieved good results so far, and the industry-wide aircrew team is generally stable and fully capable of taking on the important task of ensuring aviation flight safety.

　　Wu Shijie pointed out that recently, we have also found information on the domestic and foreign networks about "release of information from the upper level of China Eastern's public security system, the cause of the crash of China Eastern is locked to the co-pilot", "black box data has been released", and "the Civil Aviation Administration Security Office issued an emergency notice, requesting There are various rumors such as conducting aviation medical mental health monitoring of flight personnel on flights.

These rumors released false information under the guise of government departments and public security organs, which seriously misled the public's cognition and interfered with the accident investigation work.

　　"The investigation of the '3.21' accident is being carried out in accordance with the procedures. We will try our best to find out the cause of the accident as soon as possible and release relevant information in accordance with the law and procedures." Wu Shijie said.
