        I am implying that is a possibility. Some systems have auto lock on and fire on unidentified threats if they forgot to turn that off.

        Or a bird flew into an engine.

              Numerous sources already, check out VASaviation or Mentour Pilot on youtube, it looks like they flew through a rapidly growing thunderstorm and encountered extreme icing conditions. That will rapidly destroy the aerodynamics of an aircraft, and their subsequent stall and overspeed condition is a completely plausible outcome of such a situation.

                  You saw two news articles and starting spreading the conspiracy theory that the plane was shot down by Mar-a-Lago?
