China Eastern crash intentional

Flight data indicates a China Eastern Airlines plane that crashed in March was intentionally put into a nose-dive. Investigators have so far not found any mechanical or technical faults with the jet, the reports say, citing a preliminary assessment by US officials. The Boeing 737-800 was flying between the southern Chinese cities of Kunming and Guangzhou when it crashed. All 132 passengers and crew on board the plane died in the crash. "The plane did what it was told to do by someone in the cockpit", according to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the story, citing a person familiar with US officials' preliminary assessment of the cause of the crash. Data from one of the plane's "black box" flight recorders, which was recovered from the crash site, suggested that inputs to the controls pushed the plane into a near-vertical dive, the report said. China Eastern Airlines previously said the three pilots on board were qualified and in good health. The airline separately told the Wall Street Journal that there was no indication that any of the pilots was in financial trouble. Last month, the CAAC said reports that the plane may have been crashed deliberately had "gravely misled the public" and "interfered with accident investigation work". Investigators are still in the process of analysing flight data and the wreckage from the crash, Chinese state media outlet the Global Times reported. It also said the CAAC will continue to "carry out the accident investigation in a scientific, rigorous and orderly manner". The Chinese embassy in Washington, the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), and plane maker Boeing declined to comment on the Wall Street Journal's report, due to guidelines set out by the United Nations' International Civil Aviation Organization.

For me, as previous employe of Flybosnia, seeing #1808 being used as it should be used makes me soooo sad... FB management was so incapable of making business that it is almost unbelievable. They/we had so many chances of making it but wasted every single one by saving costs on toilet paper, meals, coffee, uniforms, crew salary, capable management, marketing, maintance, and what not... Greetings to Amir, Enes, Tarik, Haris, Zdeslav, Dijana, Elvira, Armin, Dalila, Nudzejma, and who not :)... Oh I forgot mr. Suleiman and his right hands hahhahahah. Cheers guys for being so incapable and even not knowing it! At least my heart is full to see #1808 where it should be, sky :D Big respect TDR!
