    I'm sorry, I don't know what a flight attendant is. Is it different from a stewardess or steward?

              I introduce myself to pilots as “stewardess” sometimes just to see them instantly get uncomfortable… [emoji1787] [emoji23]

                Latest reports indicate that the plane did not dive straight in from 30000 feet.

                "Flight MU5735, which was travelling from Kunming, the capital of Yunnan province, to Guangzhou in Guangdong province, crashed on Monday.

                There were 132 people aboard the Boeing 737-800 jet. But no survivors were found even though rescue efforts were underway for nearly two days before rain suspended operations on Wednesday.

                Data provided by Swedish air traffic monitoring service FlightRadar24 suggested that the plane was cruising at an altitude of 29,100ft when it went into a high-speed dive at 2.20.43pm on 21 March.

                It lost altitude at a maximum rate of about 31,000ft per minute or 348 mph or 560km/h, the data suggested.

                Twenty seconds into the dive, the rate of the plane’s descent to the ground slowed, and over the next 45 seconds, the jet levelled off at 7,425ft above the ground. It then began climbing.

                The data suggests that 15 seconds later, when the plane was at 8,600 ft above the ground, the plane had another dive. And this time it was final.

                      What, no survivors? I would think they would be lucky to find a body part at that speed.

                        If you fly often don’t make the mistake of watching the documentary on Boeing and the two previous crashes. It’s pretty eye opening and just diminished my trust in the world a little more.

                          Worked as a aircraft rescue firefighter for years, you would be amazed at the items you find daily on a runway while conducting a FOD check (Foreign-Object-Debris).

                            The issue is the video makes it look like the aircraft is intact, but to descend 30,000+ feet in 90 seconds you would be literally ripping control structures off. Not to mention maintaining a nose down dive at those airspeeds would be very hard to do.

                            Being a Chinese airline crashing within China, we will probably never know.

                            We’ve been machining parts for Boeing for a LONG time at my shop (my dad started it in ‘79). Y’all would **** your britches if you knew how many parts on those planes are made in Chine and other shady *** places to cut costs. I’ve had numerous families of parts come to my shop from Spirit (main Boeing sub) that we inherited because of quality issues with those parts that came from over there. Working some as we speak.

                              Can you give us some examples?
