@glennjridge you are welcome. Also, if you have control of the plane, you can nose over and descend rapidly, keeping the engines on and still flying straight, and try to land somewhere. anyway. sad video.

@creativeprojects720 ah,thank you.

horrible.

they should have heavy duty emergency parachutes that can pop out and then they can cut the engines, and have the whole plane descend slowly using the parachutes.

@glennjridge you can't glide with a plane so big and heavy with passengers and all, it will simply nose over and fall out of the sky vertically

@Francozilla they've ran a simulated flight done by trained pilots. Everyone of them crashed within 10 minutes. these guys flew it for three times as much and discovered a degree of control... something that was deemed impossible.

Sad story, but I had to laugh at the USAF controller's uniform... some kind of a nondescript dark green shirt with yellow Army corporal chevrons turned upside down on the left sleeve. Surely the producers could have found a regulation Air Force shirt?

EASY SOLUTION ,MAKE 100 PEOPLE GO TO THE BACK OR FRONT OF THE PLANE TO CHANGE CG AND CONTROL ALTITUDE.

@wasi84 yeah I posted that comment before I found out what the problem was.

@glennjridge
Not with a total loss of hydraulic fluid and a lack off tail fin !!!
It was absolutely uncontrollable. |
