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.

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

    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.

    Didn't that last hijacking attempt have then at -30000ft/min for a few seconds. This plane lost the horizontal stabilizer and the hijacked plan landed with no control surface on the vertical stabilizer.

    That's not ringing a bell for me. Do you remember any more info?

    it was the air Dubai incident. not sure if it's properly called a hijacking since it was one of the pilots who attacked the other pilot. plane plunged during the scuffle and I think level flight was restored by a passenger that grabbed the yoke until relieved by off duty pilots who were deadheading in the back of the plane. part of the rudder or one of the stabilizers ripped off.

    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?

    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.
