Chris Cuomo asks the tough questions to newsmakers in Washington and around the world. Chased the plane. So that addresses what Josh Campbell was telling us a second ago. Two f15s chased the plane but were not involved in the crash. So, again, if this is to be believed, the f15s did not shoot that down that play. Lets bring in zack helm. He sat the Seatac Airport right new and joins me on the phone. Zack, i understand you saw this plane while it was airborne . I did not see the plane airborne, but i was this the terminal where it supposedly came out of. Okay. Tell me a little bit what you know, what you saw. Anything you can tell us. Well, i was in the plane, about to take off in the time that it was hijacked. In that very plane . I was not in the plane that was hijacked. I was in another plane in the Alaska Airline industry. And i did not see it take off. But i was told to get out of my plane because if there has been a hijacking. In other words, how long before departure was this . H
Tapi Nick menjelaskan bahwa teori mengerikan itu tidak benar, dengan mengatakan bahwa posisi itu memang dirancang untuk melindungi orang.
Berbicara dengan LADbible, ia berkata Apa yang Anda coba lakukan adalah menghentikan orang-orang mematahkan leher mereka dalam dampak besar.

Seperti halnya cambukan, Anda mencoba menghindari gerakan kepala yang tiba-tiba, yang dapat mengakibatkan cedera serius, jika bukan kematian.
Eades juga menjelaskan bahwa sistem sekarang telah berubah, dan awak kabin tidak akan lagi menyuruh orang untuk bersiap.
Namun, Eades yang telah berkecimpung di industri ini selama lebih dari 40 tahun mengatakan, ada beberapa kesempatan di mana dia menghadapi kesulitan teknis dan harus memberitahu penumpang untuk mengadopsi posisi merunduk.
sure. and there have been accidents before where mechanics with this what you call run and a taxi qualify have had accidents. they ve run off the runways. they haven t flown the plane like, this but they ve run off the runways, hit jet bridges. they ve had incidents where they hit other plane at the airport. so it s not unusual. in fact, it s day to day occurrence where a mechanic does have this ability. and they re allow to be cleared by air traffic control. they have to ask for the clearances before they move the plane just like the pilot would. and so initially, it wouldn t be considered odd for a mechanic to ask, you know, permission to move the plane, to taxi the plane because they do that if they re qualified to do that and they have this permission. they do it all the time. it s not odd. okay. so what s the gap in terms of
are interested, if the plane, in fact was traveling 100 miles an hour as some people anticipated and it flew to this point before hitting the water, that would be about three and a half minutes of flying, a little under four minutes of flying before it hit the water. if it was going at 480 miles an hour cruising speed for a plane like, this it would have covered that distance in about 45 seconds. so those are just some reference points. this is one of the reasons they have some confidence they will find everything. look at this. this is twa 800. twa 800 went down in about a hundred feet of water like what we re talking about here. it was recovered about 95% of 2 t plane was pulled out and all of the victims were found. however, the final body was discovered ten months after the search began so this can be a very long involved process michaela even if it proves to be a very successful process in this relatively limited amount of water out there. michaela? i remember going through this
