The last adsb ping had it descending at > 30000 feet per minute. That means they were traveling over 300 mph straight down. I’ve read about a large number of aviation accidents, and this is the first time I’ve ever seen vertical speeds that extreme.
Allegedly an Israeli plumber saved a flydubai flight to Israel and disarmed the attacked during a dive like this. And the cockpit looked fine afterwards.
There was a recent plane hijacking attempt (by one of the pilots, no less) to perform a suicidal crash of the plane, the plane was en route to Israel with a lot of Israelis onboard, and they thwarted the attempt fairly heroically.
It was more or less in free fall the entire time. Likely reached terminal velocity. They tried to roll the plane to get lift back which is why the plane is sideways, but they couldn’t pitch it back up.
One of the current theories is the stabilizers on the tail got obstructed or damaged by ice. They detached at some point before the crash. They were found a few miles away from the crash site today.
Yeah, I was not ready for that audio. It happened so fast, but you could still tell how aware the pilots were of how unrecoverable the situation was. RIP, they didn’t deserve to go out like that.
I had to look it up, you’re not kidding. The pilot literally just screams their decent rate (22,000 feet per minute) and bank (60°) a few times and then nothing.
Kinda thinking the same thing, but at the same time, what was he supposed to say? He’s probably shaken during it too and you don’t want to say anything to incite more panic, or try to be comforting but miss the mark and waste their last seconds of life.
Do not click this if you don’t want to hear someone panicking right before they die. If you are not in a good situation to handle that, this is not for you. You gain nothing from hearing it.

This was no accident but it crashed at 700kmph

Why does it seem like someone is trying to cover that up?
If only an Israeli plumber broke into the cockpit to save the day…
I really don’t get the joke that you’re trying to make?

Yeah this is a crazy accident. They basically plummeted from cruising altitude. The audio is devastating to hear.

3 comments about the audio and no link, shocking.

Is it normal for ATC to be this emotionally detached?

Yeah cheers. Definitely not clicking that.
