Maybe the tail just fell off, but this is a boeing 737, the safest commercial passenger plane on the planet.

[The China Eastern Airlines Boeing 737-800 was
flying from Kunming to Guangzhou when it plunged to earth in Guangxi province and caught fire. The number of casualties and reason for the crash are not yet known. Rescuers have seen no signs of survivors. Chinese airlines generally have a good safety record - the last major accident took place 12 years ago.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-60819760 Boeing shares have dropped.

What causes a jet to nose dive?
[Many things can cause at least the start of a dive -- from a pilot suffering a heart attack and slumping onto the control column to a failure of the motor used to help raise and lower the nose. But they would tend to be more short-lived or there are easy ways for pilots to counteract such failures, he said] Ref: Google fresh search. |
