Not even going to speculate on the cause....I knew five of the folks on the flight. My thoughts and prayers go out to their families.

God, I'm so sorry. R. I. P.

I wish I didn't watch the video. Awfull. Poor guys. RIP.

I bet they were not covered by war zone insurance, and didn't get the extra DOD money for landing in war zone.

Vision airlines pilots had to sue the company to get that money. I have a feeling the company will not give a crap about families , waiting for time to calm everything down, and go to the bank and cash that plane insurance policy. I really hope the families will sue the hell out of owner.

Don't know why I am particularly haunted by this footage from Bagram. Perhaps it's because it is so completely surreal that I can't convince myself it's not computer generated animation or a radio controlled scale model. In my mind, jumbo jets don't just simply stop in midair in utter defiance of the finite laws of physics, then fall as though dropped by a child who's short attention span has suddenly turned elsewhere. Perhaps it's because I have spent time in the cockpit of a closely similar aircraft and environment enough to imagine what the crew may have felt, the shock and confusion of the moment when a long trusted and faithful steed suddenly and inexplicably bares its fangs and turns to bite.
