Too early to tell. Plus the area where the plane went down is known as the Inter-tropical convergence zone where trade winds of the north and south hemisphere converge causing major thunderstorms. The A330 is a relatively new design (only 11 years old) and has some quite advanced technology on-board to enable the pilots maneuver against bad weather. We may have to wait until the various authorities review all the data to determine what caused it. Weather maybe a factor but i highly doubt it was the ONLY factor. Hopefully once its aired on aircrash disasters we shall review this topic in more details right Mich. David Kiania | Asentric Consulting Ltd wrote:
Am freaked, I understand that turbulence brought the Air France down off the coast of Brazil? Is this actually possible, I was under the impression that turbulence can not down a plane. Does KQ adhere to this, I have been in pretty scarcely situations. It's just a matter of time, may ditch our national carrier, this is not funny.
My two cents
