Very sad event, hope there are survivors but the video of the plane falling from the sky looked very scary.

    This looks bad. The angle makes it seem like the controls were aimed straight down, which could be because of some control issue like the 737 max, or intentional murder suicide by the pilot. Because planes don't just go at that angle unless steered like it

      This is one of the things I'm worried about. Immediately the western narrative will be "those dang chineses and their honor culture forces them to work themselves mad to the point of murder suicide!"

      Nevermind the fact that our postal system is literally synonymous with the same thing.

      Hope those that perished went quickly and quietly. I can't imagine the terror

      It is actually fairly common for planes to come straight down like that depending on how they went into the crash. If the pilot went into a graveyard spin, the plane would nosedive like that for instance.

      I spent far too long reading airplane crash analyses out of morbid curiosity.
