Grounded who, atlas air or the 767? Neither one that I know of were grounded.

Wrong airplane crash thread, sadly there is more than one.

I am not exactly sure what you mean by this?

I would assume they meant flaps.

Bodies already found, no survivors.

Atlas air cargo plane.

The sheriff said witnesses told authorities the plane went into a nose dive, then went into the water nose-first.

Hawthorne said witnesses said they heard what sounded like lightning before the plane went down.

"We first started getting 911 reports of eyewitnesses that watched it go nose-first into the bay," Hawthorne said.
Tragic.

That is not well written, my understanding is the aircraft was at a 49 degree down angle, not that controls were set for that. Powered up and pitched down essentially.

Just relaying what I heard on the new last night....

flipper35 03-13-2019 01:52 PM
Thanks. I read it went full power and 4* pitch up, then pitched down to almost 50* (would be that 49* I guess) and then raised its nose to 20* nose down when it impacted.

Deep stall and no room to recover?

(edit, maybe should have said power on stall)
