When a airplane driver don't know what to do in a situation he should be a pilot

[billmays]

Pretty sure if your flying the plane then you sit on the right? On here he sits on the left

They should have been known us what causes the jet down at the end of this video. It disappointed 😞

TO: Smithsonian Channel; Why are your videos filled with details of air crashes, yet at the time of impact the video ends. We can only speculate as to what happened and why it happened. This is not the first time this channel has left us wondering! It's like reading an important book but the last page is gone... WHY?

Is it me or are these short videos only here for It’s like and then....crash/credits

This Accident Happen Due To The Turbulence Caused By The Aircraft Flying Ahead.

[tonymerritt]

They were too close to a Boeing 767. That was the turbulence. Also both pilots had lied about their jet certification. Basically they stole blank certificates and filled them in. Neither were qualified to fly that type of plane.

So I’m just assuming Superman saved them all since they don’t actually tell us what happened?? Like

[raydhafutomo]

The cause of the crash is wake turbulance from the Boeing 767 cause the learjet was too close to jetstream and not reducing their speed causing the learjet to suddenly pitch down and crash

[MadMax-pukj]

What a crap video... tells the story and then does not tell the story. I will look for this provider and avoid their content.
