What may have caused Brazil plane to crash? | Cuomo

Yeah Not common to see a plane to just fall straight down like that.

Some videos claim that the G-force never exceeded 1 during the spiral descent because the plane didn't break apart.

If it’s made by Boeing, then you have your answer right there .

Ice on the wings was the cause people. Ice warnings in that area via FlightRadar and at 17,000 feet it’s more of an issue.

Well it was windy. So they hit strong winds . It was spinning like it hit a large air mass.

Certainly we need to wait for investigation. That said, that type of t-type stabilizer with elevator on top, the airflow at elevator can get substantially blocked by fuselage in a severe pitch up. Essentially when pitched up, the entire body of the plane blocking airflow over the control surface that regulates pitch).This makes it difficult to get the nose back down even with full input to do so, including stick pusher.. the flight tracking shows that it pitched up stalled at 26kts (only 30mph!) and then dropped like a rock in a spinning "super stall." It is winter in southern hemisphere as well. So there could have been iceing event. Or maintenance issue that precipitated it, and then bad response by pilot flying

Yeah, you couldn't pay me to get on a plane these days. Nope.

Most airline disasters are at least partially caused by human error. I suspect this case will be no different.

The plane fell looks like it hit a force field or something...

The way it crashed is more than likely the same culprit that brought down Air France Flight 447. The Pitot Tubes had ice on them caused a stall.

How about that helicopter crash with trump and Willy brown story at yesterday’s news conference. No crash landing or Willy brown. Trumps mind is gone!
