How did anyone survive a blast that big and an impact that fierce!?!?!

[dumplinggrafitti]

pilot died, 4 injured. when the plane was about to land, the plane turned to i think about 45° degrees (???). from the snow sledge CCTV camera, you can see that the plane made a sharp turn to pull up, but it was late. so, maybe its pilot error or GPS malfunction. thats what I think what happened.

At 0:07 of the video there's a noticeable change in the vertical flight path. Stall?

[davidpeterson]

Well, it appears that fuel starvation was not the cause.

Yes, six days later and these guys are still arguing with me about the insurance on my package on that plane... never again am I using DHL

[tonymind]

Snow saved those people because you skid forward. They said airplane was going 150knots at. Crash time. If there were no flaps then its a stall situation. Because they crashed 0.8 miles before runway.

We didn't have air crashes in Lithuania for many years.

Crashed on approach?
Icy conditions?
Imma come back to this later but if I had to guess:
ice built up on the wings causing the plane to lose lift.
Or it could just be pilot error,
or the pitot tubes froze giving false information to the pilots and the plane stalled

Looks like it was coming in fast, any pilots think the same

[SayWhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat]

it may be ANYTHING... bird in turbine, but pilot error is the most likelly cause. Second is tehcnical problem. It looks like it was landing way too fast. Also i heard somebody told it had not wheels engaged... dont know correct term in english. at that altitude [above tree line] wheels must be ready.
But the fact that russian agent used [sent package that set itself on fire after some time] DHL plane in Lithuania, weeks ago to sabotage DHL plane and put it on fire in UK airport...makes this catastrophe more serious.

Dear Lithuanians, heartfelt condolences from your friends in Ukraine.
Nothing happens without reason, don't believe this was a coincidence.
My heart goes out to the families of those who lost their lives..
Glad to know that there are people who survived, hold on 🫂

It's Boeing 737 - what you expect, i advise all passengers to avoid this aircraft while booking tickets, as mush as possible. It has a record of crashing a large number every year, and is consistent. Boeing quality has become worse than Chinese toys nowadays. Best example in 737-Max

i THINK WE ALL KNOW WHO WE CAN BLAME FOR THIS.
