It would normally be very easy for the flight crew to report a few words in the situation. For instance an aircraft leaving JFK that lost it's rudder was able to report loss-of-yaw.

The flight crew in this situation was disabled. Also, for the aircraft to go near straight-down would require significant force on the yoke. A fly-by-wire disruption is possible but again there was no report form the flight crew. Finally, it's not likely that the flight crew allowed access to the cockpit.

The aircraft departed from the city of Kunming which has previously had a terrorist attack.

There is a video showing the aircraft without its rudder that is fake.

The radar path showing the aircraft pulling-up is not possible and is incorrect.

The crash scene doesn't have any commercial explosive residue. I suppose that a chemical bomb would be possible but the aircraft fuselage was in one piece in the true video captured by a mining camp.

I suppose that a terrorist could hold a knife against a steward or stewardess and get them to say that they are bringing in coffee and donuts to the flight deck:

They found both black boxes and have identified all remains according to the link below.



Investigators Recover 36,000 Fragments From China Plane Wreckage

As well as thousands of tiny shards, the two flight recorders and engine parts have been found among the debris. Boeing 737-800 NGs typically have about 600,000 components.

The remains of all 132 people on board have been identified

Decoding work on the aircraft’s two black boxes is underway in Beijing. The flight-data recorder, which was buried about 40 meters from the main crash site, was unearthed on Sunday.

I know flying is safer than driving. But at least when I'm driving I don't have to worry about whether the pilot woke up this morning and decided it was going to be his last day on Earth.
