It makes absolutely no sense at all.

There are times when a gear up belly landing is the safest option. Thankfully not too often

From my extensive research (ie trying to remember what happened in a movie I watched years ago), there would be a load of warning lights and beeps going off in the cabin alerting the crew of the danger.

Remember who were dealing with here. Also it is reported that the flight crew had previously cancelled alarms and no doubt were in panic and arguing as Pakistan's so often do not to mention waving their arms about and calling on allah. I can just visualise it! It's great!

I thought, Imran Khan becoming Prime Minister of Pakistan would make a difference.
Alas, l’d say things are worse.

All alarms can be silenced in order that any fresh event will make its presence known. Visual alarms usually change colour to indicate that an event is receiving attention but still exists.

Joking apart, I'm not afraid.

I shall never fly to Pakistan and I shall never fly Pakiair, or whatever it's called.
