Here is why we now know the Flydubai story must be false. When the plane nosedived, it reached a speed of 688 mph and it’s just not designed to handle those G-forces. It should’ve fallen apart from the extreme stresses of plummeting nearly 14,300 feet in 37 seconds (about ten times the normal descent rate). That’s the opinion of an expert on CNN as well as other former pilots. Flight simulations back this claim up. Commercial pilot and flight instructor Aaron Murphy told CNN: “Some of the numbers that we’re seeing from the reporting initially don’t make sense to me. If you’re descending that rapidly, the aircraft would have disintegrated completely.” Even if the plane didn’t fall apart, people should’ve been flung around and loose items should’ve been scattered everywhere. We’d expect to see broken bones and even fatalities. Yet we did not see serious injuries (apart from the stabbed pilot) and the place was so tidy, even cups of water were still standing. How is this possible? We have footage from the dive because multiple passengers whipped out their cameras to film people screaming, but none of it shows the chaos you’d expect. Also, a little girl was in the bathroom at the time. She should’ve been flung into the walls and ceiling, but there was not a scratch on her. We’re told that the passengers walked to the cockpit during the descent. This would appear to be physically impossible. Imagine the G-forces on a rollercoaster. Now imagine it’s travelling hundreds of miles an hour. Passengers would either be floating around at that speed, or more likely thrown to the back of the plane. The plane plummeted hard over a period of about 30 seconds. Another 30 seconds and it would’ve hit the ground, but it would’ve taken less than 30 seconds to reach an unsurvivable altitude. Lower altitudes put more stress on the plane, meaning we are talking about seconds to spare. We are told the plane kept diving and stabilising over several minutes—the cockpit was entered after the hardest dive, but while the plane was still diving. This suggests the hijacker chose to stop diving so hard when the pilot was subdued, enabling the passengers to enter. That’s awfully kind of him, but any kind of dive should’ve made entry difficult-to-impossible. Here’s a crucial piece of info: the man who first broke into the cockpit and tackled the hijacker was also the man who took control of the plane. He did all of this with literally seconds to spare. It gets even more impressive when you realise he knew that flight controls are inverted. Good job he watched that Air Crash TV show. Good job that two off-duty pilots were ready to take over. Our hero met Netanyahu hours later, still wearing his bloodied clothes—only images from the plane show his shoes were different. If he changed his shoes, why didn’t he change the rest of his clothes? He showed that his socks were soaked in blood, but he was wearing his shoes on the plane and they were not soaked in blood. He wasn’t injured so the implication is this was the pilot’s blood. Why didn’t he remove his blood-soaked socks when he changed his shoes? He told Netanyahu that he got the hijacker in a chokehold while he was trying to destroy instruments. Why was he doing that if he was flying the plane into the ground? Nothing about the story makes sense. Was the captain attacked with a knife or axe? Did passengers break down the cockpit door, or did the injured pilot open it after being stabbed? The details keep shifting. Now consider that Netanyahu predicted a major event would happen the day before, and he politicised the attack immediately after. Trump is now saying that if it was Iran, we will hit them hard. This is working out awfully well for Netanyahu, isn’t it?
