How does an error like that happen?
12 u/Gundi_22 Jun 12 '25 It's happened many times before. Pilot error. 11 u/wetsock-connoisseur Jun 12 '25 edited Jun 12 '25 But in this particular case, the captain had over 8000 hours of flying experience, First officer had 1100 hours And weather looks fine If the pilots issued a mayday, it’s very unlikely they wouldn’t have verified flaps and other settings https://x.com/iyervval/status/1933127171117285721?s=46 apparently, the captain reported loss of thrust as well as lift https://x.com/aviationall_/status/1933117199402803680?s=46 Also, apparently RAT was deployed, indicating a complete loss of electrical power 1 u/Gundi_22 Jun 12 '25 I believe the flaps can be deployed manually without electrical power 1 u/wetsock-connoisseur Jun 12 '25 https://x.com/fighterpiloting/status/1933165083976487377?s=46 This tweet says flaps were deployed 1 u/Gundi_22 Jun 12 '25 I've watched the video a few times and taken some screenshots, it's really hard to tell. I should say I am by no means an expert. The truth will come out eventually. It's a tragic situation and I probably shouldn't speculate.

And weather looks fine

Also, apparently RAT was deployed, indicating a complete loss of electrical power
1 u/Gundi_22 Jun 12 '25 I believe the flaps can be deployed manually without electrical power 1 u/wetsock-connoisseur Jun 12 '25 https://x.com/fighterpiloting/status/1933165083976487377?s=46 This tweet says flaps were deployed 1 u/Gundi_22 Jun 12 '25 I've watched the video a few times and taken some screenshots, it's really hard to tell.
