I am sure no matter what, the entire flight crew did all they could to save it!!!!!!!!! At least give them and their families that much! I am sure that the CREW did not ask to die!
Lightning damages electrical equipment...heavy turbulence damages airframes.
Heavy thunderstorms produce both.
They had electrical problems and loss of cabin pressure.
Two pilots made horrible decisions to fly into HEAVY thunderstorms.
Chaulk another crash up to "pilot error." We're never gonna reverse this damn trend.
Feel bad for all those people that died because of a stupid decision.
that post alone ought to create another 10 pages.
Well, regardless of how many people here or anywhere like to praise pilots NO MATTER WHAT.....pilot error is the leading cause of air crashes. Its the topic that should be the most talked about and the most focus should be put on the subject. What is it up to now, like 88% pilot error for crashes.
I know why they flew into that thunderstorm....but I'm not gonna talk about that, because that will cause 10 pages of crap.
Air crashes will never reach zero, but its not getting better for some reasons, its getting worse when it comes to pilot error. Its over looked and not talked about so we don't hurt peoples feelings.
Since you know it all no need for an investigation, it's already pilot error. What if they had an inflight fire?
They would have made at least one radio call for that. You'll see, they'll find a debris field tomorrow. Catastrophic failure.

The above is quoted from an AP article of two hours ago. What interested me was mention of the "automatic" message. I have no idea what the timeline mentioned is based upon (previous position reports, deviation request, etc), but does the A-330 or any 'bus or other modern type have some sort of last gasp data transmission with loss of major systems, something that doesn't require crew input? If so, it seems like a pretty good idea. Or is this an author taking a little journalistic license with the use of the word "automatic"?
Godspeed to all involved.
If the shoe fits wear it.
