An outbreak of the H5N1 bird flu is currently spreading and some experts say that this is 100 times worse than COVID-19. There is concern that this could become a pandemic, but hopefully this will not be the case. https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/100-times-worse-than-covid-pandemic-experts...

Jump to postSo why did both engines quit at once? Any speculation? The report is kind of cryptic which is by design IMO. If the FDR is giving them that info then it for sure told them how they stopped working. It's weird the time frame is so fast that a engine alarm to a loss of power. I hope they release more...

Both engines gave oil pressure warnings nearly at the exact same time. It took 20 seconds and both were lost going by Pilots transmission.
This is a little odd,

If you haven't even released a prelim why make this claim?
Surely having a gun is premeditation in any case? Like buying a car with no intention to drive it, fairly rare indeed.

Jump to postStill no information about the motive? I'm sure one person "dissed" another. I would believe this if one of the shooters didn't have a big weapon.

Jump to postThere’s a theory and video to back it up, elsewhere. If the captain reaches around and behind the the throttles to select flaps OR the co-pilot reaches around and behind the throttles to arm the T/Rs, it is possible for the pilot’s forearm to unlatch the guards that prevent the throttles going into...
Jump to postThey didn’t have time to inform ATC. besides telling the tower wouldn’t change the outcome.

With that plume of smoke and fire it seems it wasn't fuel starvation. If it wasn't birds than what was it? Why did you engines fail?
Looking at this photo, don't really see major visible damage to the fan blades / missing fan blades like you'd expect from a bird strike that led to engine failure, but maybe I'm wrong. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GF7ib9_WgAAzxHl?format=jpg&name=large source: https://twitter.com/NicoleGabeTV/st...

Jump to postCurious to see what Harbaugh does. Now more than ever the NFL could use a coach like him. Carroll sucked in my opinion. Varibel will get hired quickly. Actually I think the Jets should fire or demote their coach and hire Belicheck but he seems to want to go to the NFC.
