Turkish aviation experts deny a report by Dutch investigators saying that a faulty altimeter contributed the Boeing 737 crash in Amsterdam.

Dutch Safety Board chairman Pieter van Vollenhoven said on Wednesday that the plane landed on automatic pilot and the problem with the altimeter led to a loss of speed, which eventually caused the accident."
