Redditor Drops Science on Conspiracy Theories Surrounding German Plane Crash

A neck line caller left this message for the Buzz Adams Morning Show....

A reddit user got a little upset that conspiracy theorists were saying the French Alps plane wreak was an explosion. So, they wrote this:

'When an aircraft explodes in flight, there will still be large portions of the aircraft intact. And without an aerodynamically stable descent, those pieces will enter a free fall at a slower speed and still be largely identifiable in the debris field. Example: Malaysian flight MH17, which is strongly believed to be shot down by a BUK missle, left large pieces of debris.

 

The main indicator of a ground impact is the scorched area from the jet fuel, having a relatively consistent amount of debris, in a fairly small region. The vast amount of small debris is what is seen when a high velocity impact occurs.

The data released from the authorities, show a rate of decent consistent with an emergency landing attempt, with a loss of total control in the last :45 seconds. Combined with no communications from the aircraft during those 8 minutes, is what is expected from an electrical fire, possibly filling the cockpit with smoke, at a rate faster than the vacuums could extract it, if they were functioning.

 

Edit: Latest report says a pilot left the cockpit, and was unable to regain entry. On recordings from the recovered black box, he can be heard pounding on the door, asking to be let in. It's not clear if the remaining pilot had control of the aircraft or not.'

Boom science.
