They're saying it might have been a hurricane force wind gust but I think it was a really good mh370 impression/prank that went terribly wrong. Remember pranks are dangerous

Reported as crashing on a second landing attempt during bad weather, and video of a fireball dropping out of the sky, don't really jive with each other, unless they hosed up and damaged something during the first landing attempt.

I'm pretty sure the plane is not on fire before it hits the ground but it does look like it is rolled over which would explain why it's literally dropping out of the sky.

Russian news says the plane's tail clipped he runway, which is one hell of an understatement of that video is real

My first impression from the video is that it's a fireball, but after watching the poo poo quality video a few more times, you are possibly correct about it not being on fire and it's just aviation lights getting blown out by a crap surveillance system in night-time mode.

I don't know how you can make any guess as to its orientation based on that video. Either way, it wasn't any kind of slight overage, it hit the ground like a sack of bricks.

judging by the size of the fireball, it looks like you can see three sets of aviation lights, with the top and bottom lights being each wingtip, indicating from that perspective the plane is rolled perpendicular to the ground. could be wrong though, the video is too low res to be certain.

Yeah, the two outward light sources do appear to be wingtip lights, which does look like a sideways orientation, the center light is what looks weird. Due to the trees, can't tell if it's a belly light, tail light, or fire.

"Crashed during a landing attempt."

Do Russian planes normally attempt to land like that -- plunging out of the sky towards the runway at a 45-degree angle?

Just seeing some reports that they've located the flight recorders. Early assessment is that they're heavily damaged.




















The ones for the plane in Russia of course. MH370 will probably never be found.

I think in that video it's already bounced off the runway and isn't flying straight into the ground like it looks. Really difficult to tell exactly without some context though.
