Miami is also 300 miles closer to Houston.
Why does this matter? No matter where you refuel you’re starting with a full tank but in Miami you’re an additional 1000 miles away.

In the middle of the Atlantic?

Takeoffs are optional
Landings are mandatory.
You can live or die by either following or ignoring those rules.

According to PPRN, this aircraft is very sensitive to ANY wing contamination. Even a little bit of ice can bring it down.

All crashes have a root cause of insufficient altitude.

I think that’s what ATC says when the runway lights come on.

Dang, that would be a huge no go for me if I had a pj. How does that compare with GSs?

Weather in Miami is fine. Could they not have went through South Florida and then on to France somehow?
Gander should have been the stop. That airport exists because it’s the perfect spot for a tech stop to Europe.
Bangor is the closest good tech stop to Europe that’s located in the US, which is why they flew into there. A lot of people would rather tech stop in the US because it’s easier, cheaper, and there’s no customs to worry about. But setting up a stop in Gander is as easy as can be for an international stop.

ATIS and ATC.
Ok, the "let there be light" coming from an unknown voice right when it crashed is very creepy.
Given the weather I'm wondering if they didn't have ice accumulation or something so they lost lift on one side and flipped over as they tried to ascend.

Big difference between a firm like this and ambulance chasers. This ain’t “put the Womack on em.”

That seems to be the working theory. Apparently this type is very sensitive to it.

Hard for me to know. As an OT baller, I can only say that my private Concorde SST handles ice just fine.
Seriously, don't know. Ice is always bad for airfoils.

sad story. Everything ive read is they were great people and loved by many
Husband and wife just gave 40m to Texas athletics a few years back. Im guessing they some cash going that way in the will, too.

Mah.. these guys will probably sue everyone from beyond. These types of lawyers are dirt bags. Their job is legal extortion and wealth transfer from producers in this country. They make everything more expensive for the rest of us. So I’m not too broken up..
So your position is that companies that deliberately expose their employees, their neighbors, etc to products which cause cancer and then try to cover it up should face no repercussions. Got it.

They aren’t ambulance chasers but rely heavily on predatory venues. They are incredibly well healed and have no issues funding unnecessary surgeries and floating dirtbag clients.

how does a plane end up on its back on the runway? gust of wind?
