If the plane landed without gear and grinded down the runway before lifting off again is it not strange that this hasn't been reported/witnessed?
There would be sparks/noise e.t.c
The view out the window of the crash scene from a later flight shows fairly light grey smoke
I'm not an expert but surely that would imply they had minimal fuel
edit: actually I've seen other photos with thicker smoke, I take this back
How many airlines ceased operations over Iran in the hours after the missile strike? When I read how a shoot down makes sense because the military would be so on edge about a possible attack it seems so sad that all airliners were still happy to fly Even just from the Soleimani assassination airline...

..is that Lubitz put on an Oxygen mask?
Can't really think why he would do that, but maybe it is not something of any interest.

Jump to postThis plane was meant to be flying all the way to Las Vegas though,
If the landing gear didn't retract correctly after take off is that not something they would try and troubleshoot in the next 10+ hours of flight rather than turning back immediately?
Has a plane that was at 30,000+ feet ever been shot down from the ground before?
I think all the other shoot downs had different circumstances

Jump to postSmall detail, but I assume the reports of the plane turning at it went off radar are true?
I was wondering how we know the plane turned?
If someone had planned something meticulously to not be found out, surely they make sure to disable the transponder, *then* start the turn.
The story of the dead body found in a life jacket is a day old now, has there been any news in terms of the authenticity of this discovery?
