  1. This kind of reporting has got to stop.
    The ATC data shows the plane only dropped about 100 feet and then rapidly climbed about 300 feet. It then had a controlled decent of 6,000 feet. Yes, a 100 foot fall is enough to kill you.
    The damage was not from the plane breaking apart. The damage was from people who were not wearing their seat belts being thrown around the cabin. You are told on every flight to wear your seat belt anytime you are seated. This will result in lawsuits that will result in the airlines making rules to mandate seat belts at all times.
    It is not the fault of boeing.

  2. No no no. The 6000 feet descent was controlled . It has nothing to do with the turbulences. The man died of a heart attack. Please stop disinformation.
