Plane carrying 132 people crashes in China

  • To all the lives that were lost tragically, I give out my condolences to their loved ones.


    Though they lived their last moments, I hope that there was peace when they were able to no longer feel pain.


    May all these lost ones come to rest peacefully knowing that they are honored, respected and loved by us. <3:borahae:

  • The second 'black box' containing flight data was found. Some rumors:

    According to flight tracking website FlightRadar24, the plane briefly appeared to pull out of its nosedive before resuming its plunge to earth.

    FlightRadar24 data showed the aircraft was plummeting at a rate of 31,000 feet per minute.

    Authorities said the pilots did not respond to repeated calls from air traffic controllers and nearby planes during the rapid descent.

    There is also information on the pilots - the captain and his co-pilot were extremely experienced with clean mental health records and stable family situations. In addition to that, they had a third young pilot in the cabin. Moreover, pilots who operated 737-800 say that it is actually not that easy to make the plane nosedive as there is in-built protection from that but it is unclear whether it could be manually switched off. This makes the 'pilot suicide' theory less likely, as the pilot would have to overcome two other pilots while turning the protection to make that nosedive.


    Could be a structural failure of the plane.
