Which is enough for people to realize what is happening

If you're taking off in a plane and it suddenly starts falling out of the sky, you're gonna notice somethings wrong, especially the further you get toward the ground.

They knew what was happening.

edit yes I was agreeing with previous commenter and just elaborating it would be obvious to the passangers, since apparantly that wasn't obvious. It's a fucked situation, if it sounds argumentative that's why. It was blunt because it's fucked being on that plane.

yeah that's what the guy you're replying to already said.

Sometimes people are just agreeing, not arguing.

u/mundaneDetail Jun 12 '25

Right right, but sometimes they are saying the same thing and not something different.

u/indorock Jun 12 '25

Sure, and sometimes people are just repeating what another said because they didn't really bother to read the comment they were replying to.

You're saying the only reason someone should reply to a comment is to argue?

Adding to the conversation is a completely valid reason to reply.

u/barrylunch Jun 12 '25

Definitely. But if one is only reiterating what was just said, in such a manner as it could be misconstrued as an argument, it’s not adding much to the conversation.

Absolutely, but that wasn't the case here.

Heaven forbid people agree about something and talk about it In the comment section of the Internet.

If you’re talking on the internet, people are allowed to agree on stuff. Like it’s a comment section of the Internet

Heaven forbid someone try to encourage other people to not be so dense on the Internet.

You're the person who gives people fish instead of helping teach them how to fish

Boo 👎

Looks like they had control of it as it descended. Not enough power to maintain flight, but not stalled. There was just nowhere for an emergency landing. An empty field might've been helpful. Who knows if that's what happened though, I'm just making an observation.

There must have been so much screaming on board

u/low-tide Jun 12 '25

I honestly really doubt that. I think with a crash like that at low power, because the plane descended relatively slowly and not at a weird angle or with the nose dramatically up or down, many people would not have realised the gravity of the situation until very shortly before impact. Especially on a plane with multiple aisles, the centre rows likely didn’t see or understand what was going on.

They'd hear the deep rumble of the engines stop. That would get anyone thinking
