Weight and velocity = momentum. In this particular situation, the overspeed condition would have destroyed any parachute large enough to safely carry the weight of the plane.

I know this is a dumb question, but we doesn't the plane have smaller parachutes?
I’m not sure they’d do much good. Even if you are cruising along completely stable I don’t think you could get the door open. I have to walk around with my head hanging down, there’s not room for parachutes much less enough to put them on.

To give you some idea, on the left you can see the back side of the seat nearest the door. Between it and the screen is the door. The only thing I do outside of my seat is to reach ahead for the snacks/drinks (behind the seat with my backpack on it). You would have to strip out the gallery to create space for putting on the backpacks and you’d lose the bathroom/9th seat to store the parachutes.

Since I worded this poorly on the initial post I’ll clarify. Pilot on the doomed plane was saying the Lord’s Prayer. I was simply saying like the pilot on the other plane I would pray. And probably utter a few oh fricks

Wasn’t there a Napoleonic era French deserter who led a renegade band and was named Quatre Pot? He was an army cook?
