​​​​​Newer -800. No MAX baloney. All 132 souls lost. RIP.

Have seen 2 reports the mention sudden drop in altitude, so doesn’t look good for finding anyone alive. RIP


This link has small video of the crash site in the distance, which also shows the terrain in the area.

I'm hearing that the decent rate was on the order of 20000 fpm or something crazy like that.

If this turns into another MCAS event, by all rights Boeing should be finished.

Put the keyboard down, you are embarrassing yourself.

I’m betting on another Germanwings…lawn darts from cruise tend to go that way lately.

R.I.P. to all those who perished. :(

No need to send a team of investigators. Hundreds of Facebook and Airliners dot Net crash investigators have already determined a cause of the crash. So far we have..

1. MCAS (it wasn’t a max)
2. Germanwings incident
3. Airframe fatigue
4. Rudder hard over
5. Terry wrists
6. Extreme turbulence
