  • This accident was in fact pilot error. The pilot tried to climb above the thunderstorm and in doing so exceeded the maximum altitude for this aircraft, I believe they were at 38,000 feet. At this altitude air is to thin the generate enough lift and thrust and the aircraft stalled. The fatal error was that the pilot continued to hold back on the stick preventing the aircraft from regaining airspeed, and control. Correct measures would have been to descend to increase airspeed.

  • Minor cracks in some of the wing components. With modern materials you can locate and fix these cracks before they become lethal, unlike metal alloys. Modern planes a very safe, doesn't matter what name is on the bonnet. Boeing and Airbus make good craft - now if you want to take a risk how about Tupelov? ;-O

  • well, an Airbus A380 was grounded in Australia because of cracks in the wings, so i think Boeing is not bad Oh and when was the A380 launched, not that long ago...

  • Airbus sucks, fly on a boeing and you will get to where you want to go. God bless the USA! After all it all started at kitty hawk.

  • @MegaDucky26 Haha, you silly American's. Boeing is an aging relic being outpaced by the superb Airbus company. You keep your boeings to fly around America, the rest of the world is moving on.

  • @thecompfox The 787 and the new 777 with a composite wing is going to fly right over your head.

  • I know many people say pilot error all the time.... but this actually was.. There is something called a pitot tube on an airplane, it measures both airspeed and altitude as well as change in vertical (VSI) when flying in clear conditions, pitot heat is not required, but when entering visible moisture of any kind, pitot heat must be applied to avoid blockage, but the pilots were very distracted with the high altitude storm, they never applied it, therefore blocking it, and all 3 gauges failed...

  • And maybe this reporter can figure out who stole his Lucky Charms.

  • i dont trust airbusses either so much bad news about it

  • imho airbus not as safe as boeing.dont like composite parts

  • @hassannassaralah While airbus has had their share of incidents, one cannot simply claim that one plane is safer than another without sufficient evidence proving so. For example, this incident involved the formation of ice upon the pitot tubes of the aircraft (a crucial instrument that all aircraft, even small single engine private aircraft have). The ice formed when the aircraft unwittingly flew into a thunderstorm. Bottom line is that this accident could have happened to almost any aircraft.

  • @hassannassaralah Boeing are just beginning to use composite parts in their new aircraft designs so you better get used to it. The Airbus track record is much safer than Boeing will ever be.

  • @thecompfox whaaat? Don't lie now asswipe the A340 has no accidents because there's only 350 of them,besidea that the Airbust 320 is listed # 6 as far as being the safest.

    There's twice (at least) as many Boeing planes flying for twice as long.take a statistics class.

  • Two Air buses lost their vertical stabilizer.. and no one cares.

  • They coudent send any communication messages because their systems failed and it was at night when it happened

  • God bless their souls.

  • even though I have read about other air crashes, this particular disaster has really upset me a lot, and I want the black box to be found soon so that concerned people all over the world would heave a sigh of relief, RIP
